As AI moves into production, teams need to serve models and host agents at scale. This path teaches distributed training,model serving, and running autonomous AI agents natively on Kubernetes — a specialized, high-value skill set at theintersection of MLOps and platform engineering.
A working knowledge of Kubernetes is strongly recommended — this is the most infrastructure-heavy path. If you're new to K8s, cover a core Kubernetes course first; the AI-on-K8s courses assume you can already work with clusters, pods and CRDs.
This path is skills- and project-focused rather than exam-focused. Instead of a certification exam, you finish with hands-oncapability in cloud-native model serving (KServe), MLOps, agent hosting (KAgent), and AI-driven cluster troubleshooting(K8sGPT).
The full path is roughly 120 hours. From scratch: 2 hrs/day → ~9 weeks, 4 hrs/day → ~5 weeks, 6 hrs/day → ~3 weeks.With AI foundations and K8s basics in place, Steps 3 & 4 take around 3–4 weeks at 2 hrs/day.
