Ifiok Nkem shared a free, four-level curriculum for learning to build AI agents in a day, complete with a GitHub repo:
- Level 1 (21 min): intro to agents, agentic frameworks, agent design.
- Level 2 (1 hr): tool use design pattern, agentic RAG, trustworthy agents, planning pattern.
- Level 3 (2 hrs): multi-agent design, metacognition pattern, production deployment, agentic memory, Microsoft Agent Framework.
- Level 4 (5 hrs): agentic protocols (MCP and A2A), context engineering, computer use agents, securing agents.
His advice: do one level per session and actually apply each video before moving on. A solid, current map of the agent engineering stack for self-learners.
