Workshops

Learn AI engineering by building it.

NexOps gives hands-on workshops to company teams and to students. Participants build instead of watching slides, and leave with something that runs and the method to keep going.

Plan a workshopAcademy

01 / Audiences

Two audiences, one way of teaching

Every session follows the same approach: a short explanation, then building. The topics and the examples depend on who is in the room.

  • Team workshops

    For companies

    For engineering, data and product teams that want to get started with AI engineering or go deeper. Tailored to your stack and your data, on-site or online.

    Typical topics

    • Getting started with AI engineering
    • AI harnesses and evaluation: testing agents on your own tasks
    • Self-hosted and sovereign AI on open-weight models
    • Databricks for data and AI teams
    • Voice agents

    Outcome

    Your team builds something that works on your own use case.

    Plan a company workshopAI engineering services

  • Hands-on sessions

    For students

    For universities, bootcamps and student associations. Practical AI engineering sessions, from a first agent to evaluating it, built around skills that count in a career.

    Typical topics

    • Your first agent: how a model, tools and a loop fit together
    • Building with an AI harness, step by step
    • Evaluating what you built: test sets and honest measurement
    • Working practices from real projects: version control, tests and review

    Outcome

    Students leave with a working project, a way to test it and skills they can show to an employer.

02 / Formats

Typical formats, shaped to your group

These are the formats we are usually asked for, not fixed products. Duration, depth and topics follow your group and your goal.

  • Half dayAn introduction with one guided build. It fits a team that needs a shared starting point, or a student event with one clear topic.
  • Full dayTime for a complete build: from a first prototype to a first round of evaluation on your own examples.
  • Multi-day seriesSeveral sessions spread over weeks. Each builds on the last, with room to practise in between and to review the results together.

Online or on-site, in English or Dutch. We agree format, topics and group in an intake call, and quote after that call.

03 / Takeaways

What participants take away

Each workshop is built so that the result outlives the session.

  • Working code that the participants built themselves
  • A method to test an AI system on their own tasks instead of trusting a demo
  • Working habits from real delivery: version control, review, tests and security from the start
  • Material and code from the session, to continue afterwards
  • A certificate of attendance on request

04 / How it runs

How a workshop runs

Four steps, from the first call to the follow-up.

  1. Intake

    A short call about your group, their level, your goal and your tools. If a workshop is not the right format, we say so.

  2. Tailoring

    We pick topics and examples to match. For companies that means your stack and your own use case. For students we use examples that need no private data.

  3. The session

    Short explanations, then building, with a NexOps engineer next to the group. On-site or online.

  4. Follow-up

    You receive the material and code from the session. Our academy has learning paths your group can continue with after the session.

05 / Academy

The academy, learn at your own pace

academy.nexops.nl has learning paths for AI and data engineering. We pick the best existing courses from Databricks, Hugging Face and others, and add hands-on projects and checklists.

06 / FAQ

Questions about workshops

Answers based on how we actually deliver.

How large is a group?

We work with small groups, so that everyone builds and gets feedback. The right size depends on the topic and the format. We agree it in the intake.

Which language do you teach in?

English or Dutch, whichever the group prefers.

On-site or online?

Both. We run workshops at your location or online, and agree which in the intake.

Can we use our own data?

Yes, in your own environment and under your rules. A company workshop can be built on your use case and your data, in your own tenant or on your own infrastructure, so that data stays in your control. We agree which data is used before the session.

What level do participants need?

It can range from first steps to experienced engineers. We tailor the session to the group, and we say so if the range is too wide for one session.

Do participants get a certificate?

A certificate of attendance on request. It confirms attendance only. It is not an industry certification.

What does a workshop cost?

We quote after a first conversation, because the format, the group and the tailoring decide the scope.

Is there an academy?

Yes, at academy.nexops.nl. It has learning paths that recommend existing courses from Databricks, Hugging Face and others, plus NexOps projects and checklists. The courses belong to their providers.

Which workshop fits your group?

Tell us who the participants are and what they should be able to do afterwards. We will say which format fits.
