AI agent workshops for Australian teams.
Hands-on training in building and deploying AI agents — autonomous, agentic AI that plans and carries out multi-step work, uses your tools and data, and runs in the background. Built around a real workflow from your business, not a generic course.
What is an AI agent workshop?
An AI agent is software that pursues a goal rather than answering a single question. Give it an objective — triage this inbox, reconcile these records, research and draft this report — and it plans the steps, decides what to do next, calls on tools and data as it needs them, and checks its own progress along the way. The best agents run quietly in the background and hand you finished work, not another thing to manage.
A hands-on AI agent workshop takes that idea and grounds it in your business. We start from a real workflow, design an agent around it, connect it to the tools and data it needs, and set the guardrails that keep it safe. You leave understanding not just what agents are, but where they genuinely earn their place — and how to build, run and measure one with confidence.
Who it's for
Business owners & operations
Put the repetitive, multi-step work — admin, follow-ups, reconciliation — onto an agent that runs in the background so your team can focus on the work that matters.
Managers & team leads
See clearly where agents fit in your processes, how to keep a human in the loop, and how to measure whether an agent is actually pulling its weight.
Developers & technical staff
Go deeper on designing agents, connecting them to tools and data, and shipping them with the guardrails and monitoring that keep them reliable.
What you'll learn
Every session is scoped to your team and a workflow that matters to you. Here's what's in the toolkit:
- What AI agents are, how agentic AI reasons through a goal, and when to reach for one
- Designing an agent around a real workflow from your business
- Connecting agents to your tools, data and services so they can actually get work done
- Guardrails and human-in-the-loop — approvals, limits and safe boundaries on real systems
- Running agents in the background and handing you finished work rather than more to manage
- Common pitfalls — where agents go off the rails, and how to catch it early
- Measuring value: knowing whether an agent is saving time and money or quietly costing it
- Where agents fit versus simple automations — and when the simpler option is the smarter one
Taught by people who run agents every day
Industrial AI builds and runs AI agents for its own business and for clients — the same agents power our managed AI agent service, so you're learning from working practitioners rather than a slide deck. You'll get honest advice on what actually holds up in production, what to avoid, and where an agent will make the biggest difference for you. If your team also wants to go hands-on with the agentic coding tools we build with, our Claude Code workshop pairs naturally with this one.
Sessions & pricing
AI agent training runs as part of our AI workshops — Foundations, Connected and Team Ready. We scope the right depth for your team on a free discovery call, then tailor the day to building agents around the workflows that matter to you.
Common questions
What is an AI agent?
An AI agent is software that plans and carries out multi-step tasks on your behalf. Rather than answering a single question, it works towards a goal — deciding what to do next, using tools and data, and checking its own progress along the way. Good examples are agents that triage an inbox, reconcile records, or research and draft a report end to end.
Do we need to be developers to attend?
No. The workshop is built around your workflows and explained in plain English, so operations, admin and management staff all get value from it. Technical team members will go deeper on the build, but you don't need to write code to understand where agents fit and how to direct one.
How is an AI agent different from a chatbot or a simple automation?
A chatbot answers questions in a window and a simple automation follows fixed rules. An AI agent is agentic — it reasons about a goal, chooses which tools to use, and adapts across several steps to get a job done. We cover exactly where agents earn their place and where a simpler automation is the smarter, cheaper choice.
Can we run the workshop online?
Yes — sessions run online right across Australia, or on-site by arrangement. We'll work out what suits your team on the free discovery call.
Will we leave with a working agent?
That's the goal. We design the session around a real workflow from your business, so you walk away with a working example and a clear picture of how to run, monitor and extend it.
