Ed has a comprehensive, immersive 6 week course on Udemy that covers this material, along with LangGraph, AutoGen and tons more. Here it is, with a coupon for ODSC people! The Complete Agentic AI Engineering Course
We are using the fantastic uv platform and setup should be relatively painless!
Windows PC users: you will need to have checked the "gotcha #4" at the top of the SETUP-PC instructions -- installing Microsoft Build Tools.
Then, you will need to run this command in a Cursor Terminal in the project root directory in order to run the Crew commands:
uv tool install crewai
And in case you've used Crew before, it might be worth doing this to make sure you have the latest:
uv tool upgrade crewai
Any problems, please do contact Ed - I'm at [email protected] or on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/eddonner/

This workshop does involve making calls to OpenAI and other frontier models, requiring an API key and a small spend, which we set up in the SETUP instructions. If you'd prefer not to spend on API calls, there are cheaper alternatives like DeepSeek and free alternatives like using Ollama!
Details are here.
Be sure to monitor your API costs to ensure you are totally happy with any spend. For OpenAI, the dashboard is here.
Be sure to have fun with the workshop! You could not have picked a better time to be learning about Agentic AI. I hope you enjoy every single minute! And if you get stuck at any point - contact us.
