AI-in-5 🇳🇬: Intro to AI Agents Mini Course Nigeria Edition

​This special edition of our AI in 5 mini course is led by Cornelius, my PhD student originally from Nigeria, who is passionate about making AI accessible and impactful across Africa.

​He has already taught these topics at CU Boulder, and now he is bringing them back home to share with the Nigerian community.

​In just five sessions, you’ll explore the foundations of modern AI agents — with no coding required.

​Instead, you’ll gain clear, step-by-step intuition, the AI by Hand ✍️ way.

​Five Topics

1. ​Vector Databases & Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) — how agents connect to knowledge

2. ​AI Agents — the basics of building and running them

3. ​Multi-Agent Systems — agents working together

4. ​Model Context Protocol (MCP) — the new standard for connecting agents and tools

5. ​AI Agents for Africa — unique opportunities, challenges, and innovations in the African context
