DP-3028 Implement Generative AI engineering with Azure Databricks

Skip to Scheduled Dates

Course Overview

This course covers generative AI engineering on Azure Databricks, using Spark to explore, fine-tune, evaluate, and integrate advanced language models. It teaches how to implement techniques like retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and multi-stage reasoning, as well as how to fine-tune large language models for specific tasks and evaluate their performance. Students will also learn about responsible AI practices for deploying AI solutions and how to manage models in production using LLMOps (Large Language Model Operations) on Azure Databricks.

Who Should Attend

This course is designed for data scientists, machine learning engineers, and other AI practitioners who want to build generative AI applications using Azure Databricks. It is intended for professionals familiar with fundamental AI concepts and the Azure Databricks platform.
