AI Bootcamp for Developers

17 August, 2026Amsterdam, The Netherlands

5 days
In Person

Build production-ready AI applications and autonomous agents — in five intensive days in Amsterdam.
This hands-on bootcamp takes you from LLM fundamentals to fully functioning agentic systems. Starting with Building LLM Applications, you’ll learn how to design, evaluate and deploy solutions powered by large language models. You’ll then advance to Agentic AI for Developers, where you’ll architect autonomous agents that can reason, plan and execute complex multi-step tasks.
Designed for developers who want to go beyond the hype and ship real AI — this is where theory meets production.

Two Training. One Powerful Bootcamp.

The AI Bootcamp for Developers is delivered as a 5-day, in-person intensive at the Xebia office in Amsterdam. Full-day sessions, live coding exercises and direct collaboration with trainers and peers give you the depth and focus needed to build real AI systems – fast.

What will you learn?

After the training, you will be able to:

Build and deploy LLM-powered applications: design end-to-end pipelines with retrieval, evaluation and production-readiness in mind

Evaluate and iterate on AI solutions: apply structured techniques to measure, debug and improve model behaviour in real-world contexts

Engineer agentic AI systems: create autonomous agents that plan, reason and execute multi-step tasks using modern frameworks

Program

The bootcamp combines two complementary modules delivered in person by experienced trainers over five intensive days in Amsterdam.

  • Understand how large language models work and how to prompt them effectively
  • Build retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines
  • Connect LLMs to external tools and APIs
  • Evaluate, test and deploy LLM-based solutions responsibly

This training is for you if:

You want to understand how Generative AI and Agentic AI create real business value without becoming a developer.

You are responsible for driving innovation, digital transformation, or AI initiatives within your team or organization.

This training is not for you if:

You have no programming experience (→ check out AI Bootcamp for Business)

You’re looking for a conceptual or non-technical introduction to AI

Requirements

Basic Python programming experience is required, you should be comfortable reading and writing scripts. No prior experience with LLMs, AI frameworks or machine learning is needed. A laptop with a working development environment will be needed for the hands-on sessions (setup instructions shared in advance).

Why should I follow this training?

Go from LLM user to LLM builder

Learn how to construct robust, production-grade applications on top of large language models — not just use them.

Master the agentic paradigm

Autonomous agents are reshaping what’s possible in software. Gain the hands-on skills to design systems that plan, reason and act — not just respond.

Work at the frontier, with the tools that matter

Every session is grounded in real frameworks and real use cases. You’ll leave with code, patterns and confidence you can apply on Monday morning.

What else
should I know?

After registering for this training, you will receive a confirmation email with practical information. A week before the training, we will ask you about any dietary requirements and share literature if you need to prepare.

See you soon!
