What you will learn in this course

WHY THIS COURSE IS A GAMECHANGER: Teams often struggle to extend AI assistants beyond their standard functions. This means missing out on the opportunity to connect AI with smart and effective internal systems. In this training, we show you how to develop custom skills and MCP servers and turn your AI assistant into a powerful interface for your entire toolchain.

ABOUT THIS COURSE: Our comprehensive 2-day training provides engineering teams with practical skills for extending AI assistants through custom skills and Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers. You'll learn to evaluate and deploy existing MCP servers, develop custom skills for Claude Code, Open Code, and GitHub Copilot, and create your own MCP servers that connect AI assistants to internal REST APIs and enterprise systems.

In extensive hands-on labs, you will develop a working MCP server that connects to an API of your choice and can serve as a template for future integrations. Whether you want to connect AI to databases, internal tools, or proprietary systems, this training provides the foundation.
