Multi-Agent Systems for Government Workflows (Advanced) (Self-Paced)

via Graduate School USA

Overview

When one AI agent isn't enough, multiple agents can coordinate to handle complex, multi-step government workflows.

This advanced, self-paced course covers how multi-agent systems are designed - orchestration, hand-offs, and coordination - and the new failure modes they introduce, so you can build them deliberately and safely.
