RISE OF AGENTS : Building the Next Generation of Intelligent Solutions.

The Rise of Agents is a hands-on mentorship running from January 8th to March 26th 2026, designed for Power Platform professionals ready to move beyond apps and into agentic systems. We go from LLM fundamentals and prompt engineering to building real AI agents using Copilot Studio, MCPs, Generative Pages, Code Agents, and modern tools like vibe.powerapps.com.
This is about learning how to design, govern, and scale intelligent agents that actually work in enterprise environments — not demos, not hype.
