GitHub Copilot – Software Development & Agent Workflows (AIPRG)

Programming, Java, Spring

This intensive two-day course teaches how to use AI-assisted coding in real development tasks. It's not for non-programmers or a demo-only session; the course uses GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT for generation, refactoring and architecture.

The second day covers advanced topics: building an MCP server with FastMCP in Python, integrating agents with GitHub Issues, setting permissions and creating skills validated by unit tests. Hands-on pair work focuses on safety and workflows.

THIS TRAINING COURSE WILL HELP YOU:

  • Integrate AI tools like GitHub Copilot into development
  • Design cleaner, more maintainable software architecture
  • Write maintainable code and automate testing
  • Detect and fix issues in existing codebases
  • Use AI with REST APIs, SQL and multi-agent workflows

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

  • Junior developers eager to learn AI-assisted coding
  • Senior developers wanting practical AI workflows
  • Team leads planning AI adoption in development teams
