Trainingsbeschrijving
Naar bovenCoding with AI Course Overview
There’s no doubt that AI can make developers more efficient and productive. It’s also a great learning aid, enabling individuals to acquire knowledge in their own way and at their own pace. But it has its drawbacks too. It’s costly. LLM responses may be of poor quality, wrong, or even malicious. Developers must know enough to critique the code produced, and they must be disciplined enough to avoid cognitive atrophy.
This course deals with key AI concepts including language models, prompting, context, and agents.
It provides comprehensive coverage of GitHub Copilot in VS Code specifically, though the concepts are applicable to other AI coding assistants too. Delegates will learn how to exploit suggestions, agents, context, tools, slash commands, and smart actions. Delegates will further learn how to customise Copilot and to use it safely and securely.
Exercises and examples are used throughout the course to give practical hands-on experience with the techniques covered.

Naar bovenWho will the Course Benefit?
The Coding with AI course is primarily aimed at developers, analysts, and engineers (those who write code), but it may also be of interest to non-technical people responsible for teams that produce code.
Trainingsdoelstellingen
Naar bovenCourse Objectives
The course aims to provide the delegate with the skills and knowledge necessary to use AI tools, specifically GitHub Copilot in VS Code, to become more efficient and productive. It also seeks to provide the delegate with an understanding of the way in which LLMs and agents work, and the risks and safeguards involved.
