Course Overview
Beginner
Free Course
For developers who call language models from their own code and want answers they can rely on, not just answers that look good. You will learn to write prompts as specifications, choose between zero-shot, few-shot and reasoning techniques, and measure every change against a labelled test set.

Course Content
Section 1: Prompting Basics
Learn how a prompt steers a model, and how to use structure, examples, reasoning and system messages on purpose rather than by habit.
Section 2: Applied Prompt Design
Measure prompt changes properly, match the prompt to the task type, and see how three real systems were tuned and where they broke in production.
Section 3: Mini Project
Build a small prompt library with a registry, eval sets, a scoring harness and validators, so every prompt has a version and a measured score.
