Choose a topic — problems will keep coming one after another for as long as you like

Theory of all steps of the program by blocks. Open a topic to read it.

How a session goes

A session is 10–90 minutes: a warm-up on what you've learned, new steps with short theory and problems, practice. Each problem gives two tries: 100 points on the first, 60 on the second; after the second mistake the correct answer is shown. You move on in the program if 70 % of the problems are solved.

Tasks are situations from working with an agent: choose what to do, and after answering read the explanation. Questions and the order of options change each time you repeat a step. In the trainer, every topic is untimed.

About the course

How to use AI agents in any kind of work — texts and documents, spreadsheets and statistics, sources and code: setting tasks, context and sessions, project memory, skills, plugins and connectors, checking numbers and facts, security and personal data, portability. Not tied to any single product.
