Context Engineering
Most bad AI answers come from bad context, not bad prompts. Learn to give a model the right instructions, memory, retrieved data and tool results at the right time, within a token budget, and to debug answers that go wrong.
- Live class, online
- One 2 hour hands on live class
- Intermediate level
- Certificate you can verify

Questions about this course
Is this the same as prompt engineering?
It builds on it. Prompt engineering is how you ask; context engineering is everything else the model sees.
Is the class live or recorded?
Live, on a video call in Eastern time, with time for your questions. Every session is also recorded, and you keep the recordings for 30 days.
Do I get a certificate?
Yes. Finish the class and its exercises and you get a Get In Tech certificate with a code employers can check online.
Can my employer pay?
Yes. We invoice companies directly, and for three or more people from one team we can run a private session.
Are prices in Canadian dollars?
Yes. Prices are in CAD before tax. Sales tax is added at checkout based on your billing address.
Can I get a refund?
All sales are final, with no refunds. The one exception: if a PMP or BA cohort does not reach 10 students, you can move to the next cohort or get a full refund.
