AI-102: Designing and Implementing a Microsoft Azure AI Solution

Organizations deploy AI systems under increasing pressure to deliver measurable outcomes while controlling costs, latency, and data governance risks. Azure AI services now form a central layer in enterprise architectures, especially for document processing, conversational interfaces, and visual data analysis. Developers must move beyond isolated models and build integrated, production ready AI systems aligned with cloud constraints and security expectations.

During this training, participants build working AI applications using Azure AI Foundry and core services. They design pipelines that extract structured data from forms, create conversational agents with multi turn logic, and deploy image classification and object detection models. Exercises include integrating services via REST APIs and SDKs, configuring speech recognition and synthesis, and building applications that combine multiple modalities such as text, image, and audio. Each module requires participants to produce working components and validate outputs.

The course addresses gaps that most Azure trainings ignore. Participants learn how to handle inconsistent input data, manage API limits, structure prompts for reliable outputs, and ensure traceability of AI decisions. They also resolve integration issues between services, manage authentication flows, and align outputs with business requirements. Focus remains on implementation constraints rather than feature lists.

Participants leave able to design, build, and deploy Azure AI applications that operate in real environments. They produce working pipelines, configure services for production use, and justify architectural decisions. They can lead implementation discussions, evaluate tradeoffs between services, and prepare for the AI 102 certification exam with direct hands on experience.

“Had a great experience learning with Abilene Academy, it has been an extremely long time since I have attended an external formal training outside of the business organization I work in. I found this training to be truly beneficial for me to attend. the overall delivery of the course by Henri was superb, he kept us well engage despite having half of the room online and half face to face. The communication from the advisors from the initial enquiry regrading the course up until now has also been great! definitely recommending to my colleagues. Thank you!”

“Henri and Alexis conducted a focused, intensive four-day ISO/IEC 27001 Lead Implementer Course of immediate relevance to The Global Fund. Participants representing both IT and Risk are now better prepared to design and operationise a corporate ISMS.”
