LEARNING OBJECTIVES
  • Set up the development environment for building AI agents using Google ADK and create your first functional agent.
  • Design and implement a single-agent system that integrates multiple tools for complex tasks using Google ADK.
  • Refactor a single-agent system into a multi-agent architecture, applying orchestration patterns for efficient task delegation.
  • Evaluate AI agents using automated testing methods to ensure reliability and performance in production environments.
  • Deploy AI agents built with Google ADK to Google Cloud Run, managing dependencies and creating scalable applications.
  • Design structured workflows using orchestration patterns such as sequential, parallel, and loop workflows for multi-agent systems.

ABOUT THIS COURSE
As AI systems evolve from single-model interactions to coordinated, autonomous workflows, the ability to build AI agents using Google ADK is becoming a critical skill. Modern applications increasingly rely on multi-agent systems that can reason, collaborate, and execute tasks reliably. Yet most engineers struggle to move beyond simple prototypes. This course is designed to give you a clear, structured path to building production-ready agent systems using Google ADK. I built this course from my work in adaptive AI systems and intelligent architectures, where orchestrating multiple components is often the hardest part of deployment. A recurring pattern I observed was that developers could build individual models, but lacked a framework for coordinating them into reliable agent systems. This course addresses that gap by breaking down how to build AI agents using Google ADK through a systems-first perspective focused on structure, control, and reliability. You’ll start by understanding the core architecture of Google ADK agents and setting up your development environment. From there, you’ll build a single-agent system and extend it into a multi-agent architecture, learning orchestration patterns such as sequential flows, parallel execution, and iterative loops. The course emphasizes hands-on development, evaluation, and deployment, ensuring you can design, test, and scale agent workflows effectively. If you want to build AI agents using Google ADK and move from experimentation to real-world systems, this course provides a clear and practical path to get there.

These are high-quality courses. Trust me the price is worth it for the content quality. Educative came at the right time in my career. I'm understanding topics better than with any book or online video tutorial I've done. Truly made for developers. Thanks

You guys are the gold standard of crash-courses... Narrow enough that it doesn't need years of study or a full blown book to get the gist, but broad enough that an afternoon of Googling doesn't cut it.

Your courses are simply awesome, the depth they go into and the breadth of coverage is so good that I don't have to refer to 10 different websites looking for interview topics and content.
