“This course contains the use of artificial intelligence”
Unlock the full potential of Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) — the framework behind today’s most accurate, data-aware AI systems.
This comprehensive bootcamp takes you from the fundamentals of RAG architecture to enterprise-level deployment, combining theory, hands-on projects, and real-world use cases.
You’ll learn how to build powerful AI applications that go beyond simple chatbots — integrating vector databases, document retrievers, and large language models (LLMs) to deliver factual, explainable, and context-grounded responses.
What You’ll Learn
The core concepts of Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and why it’s transforming AI.
Building RAG pipelines from scratch using LangChain, LlamaIndex, and FAISS.
Implementing hybrid search (keyword + vector) for smarter retrieval.
Creating multi-modal RAG systems that process text, images, and PDFs.
Building Agentic RAG workflows where intelligent agents plan, retrieve, and reason autonomously.
Optimizing RAG performance with prompt tuning, top-k selection, and similarity thresholds.
Adding security, compliance, and role-based governance to enterprise RAG pipelines.
Integrating RAG into real-world workflows like Slack, Power BI, and Notion.
Deploying complete front-end and back-end RAG systems using Streamlit and FastAPI.
Designing evaluation metrics (semantic similarity, precision, recall) to measure retrieval quality.
