AI Agent Builder

This 3-day intensive programme helps professionals in Singapore design, build and deploy ChatGPT-based agents that solve real business challenges. Participants will learn how to configure, customise and integrate ChatGPT using no-code tools such as Custom GPTs and ChatGPT Enterprise, as well as API-based workflows with OpenAI API, Zapier and Make.

Duration

3 Days

Instructor

Carlo Pepe

Venue

Marina Bay Sands, Singapore

This programme combines strategic thinking with practical, hands-on implementation, giving participants in Singapore the skills to build ChatGPT-powered agents that can support real business needs. Throughout the course, participants will learn how to design agents for a range of use cases, including customer engagement, data analysis, employee onboarding, knowledge retrieval, and day-to-day workflow support.

With a strong focus on real-world application, the course guides participants through the process of planning, building, testing, and refining their own agent using relevant tools and platforms. By the end of the programme, participants will not only understand how ChatGPT-based agents can improve productivity and streamline operations, but will also have developed and tested a working agent tailored to a specific business use case relevant to their organisation or industry.
