Build generative AI applications with Azure AI Foundry

The Develop generative AI apps in Azure (AI-3016) course gives AI engineers, data scientists and developers practical experience of building generative AI applications on Microsoft Azure. You will learn how to plan an AI solution, select and deploy language models and develop applications using the Azure AI Foundry SDK.

The course covers prompt flow, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), fine-tuning, responsible AI and performance evaluation. Practical exercises include deploying and testing models, building a generative AI chat application, grounding a language model with your own data and applying content filters.

Develop practical Azure AI Foundry skills

This one-day, instructor-led course is suitable for technical professionals who already understand the fundamentals of artificial intelligence and want to create generative AI applications or custom copilots with Azure AI Foundry.
