Cisco Certification Training Course
Cisco AI Technical Practitioner 810-110 Certification Training Course
We'll get you ready for the Cisco AI Technical Practitioner (810-110 AITECH) exam, a newer Cisco credential for using AI in technical work.
Course focus: Generative AI models, prompt engineering, ethics and security, data analysis, workflow automation and agentic AI.
Course Overview
What the AI Technical Practitioner course covers and who it's for.
Cisco built AI Technical Practitioner for technical staff who use AI tools in their work. It covers how models work, how to prompt them well, how to use them safely and how to build simple agents and automations.
Generative AI models, workflow automation and agentic AI are 20% each, and you'll practice with real tools in class.
Instructor-led classes with hands-on labs and practice questions.
Accumentum is an independent training provider and isn't affiliated with or endorsed by Cisco. Cisco sets exam content, prices and policies, so check cisco.com before you book.
