AI-Augmented Developer Training with Mistral

Accelerate the productivity of your development teams with Agentic Coding.

In a market where development speed and code quality make the difference, this training transforms your developers into "augmented developers," capable of leveraging the most advanced AI agents.

Focused on real-world use cases, the training emphasizes immediate value creation and concrete improvement in developer productivity. Participants leave with methods, workflows, and assets directly applicable to their corporate projects.

Your teams will learn to orchestrate and collaborate with intelligent agents to generate reliable and maintainable code, automate testing and documentation, accelerate refactoring and bug resolution, and standardize AI-assisted development practices.

The training is built around the use of Mistral and teaches participants to build their own custom business agents. Note: the choice of tools is updated according to the most relevant and mature solutions on the market.

By adopting this approach, your teams will move from "vibe coding" to a structured agentic methodology, ensuring code quality, security, and maintainability while drastically accelerating delivery.

At the end of this training, the final assessment in the form of a certification test allows participants to obtain the SFEIR Certified AI-Augmented Developer certification.

The workshops use either Java or Python for the backend. The frontend is built in Angular.
