Who it is for
For everyone who knows the AI track up to T7 and T8 and has to offer an agent in Microsoft Teams or Microsoft 365 Copilot.
Prerequisites
Modules T7 (agents) and T8 (MCP) of the AI track, hence K2. Exercises that use a tenant need a test tenant, never a production tenant; every exercise has a part without a tenant.
Afterward, you can
- Tell declarative agents from custom engine agents and choose the route with reasons
- Host an agent with the Microsoft 365 Agents SDK and test it without a tenant
- Take the signed-in person from the token and call Graph on their behalf with the smallest rights
- Build approvals as Adaptive Cards that only the responsible person confirms exactly once
- Know package, manifest and approval, and plan operations
- Offer the Kladde's read-only MCP tools to a declarative agent

Final project: the Kladde
What the Kladde can do after this course
The Kladde's quote agent answers in Teams, knows the signed-in person, shows approvals as a card and can be distributed as a package for the organization.
The course ends with a module exam: chat service, approval card and package check against stand-ins, plus a justified list of rights.
