Model Context Protocol (MCP)

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is rapidly emerging as a transformative standard that enables large language models (LLMs) to interact with the world beyond text. In doing so, it bridges the gap between AI reasoning and real-world action.

This session will provide an accessible introduction to the MCP, covering what it is, how it works and its importance for the future of software development and user interfaces.

We will cover the theory behind MCP and feature practical demonstrations. We will also discuss the implications for user interfaces, legacy software, security considerations and the need to rethink API and UI design.

Who should attend?

This training is designed for software developers, architects, and technical leaders who want to understand how large language models can interact with applications and systems beyond simple text prompts and responses.

Prerequisites

Participants should have general programming experience and a basic understanding of how APIs work. Familiarity with AI concepts and large language models will be helpful but is not required, as the training provides an accessible introduction to these topics.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to your questions about our training courses

Why are there no full-day online courses?

Our content is designed for optimal online learning: Short, focussed sessions promote concentration and provide time to process what has been learned between units.

Are the training sessions live or recorded?

All our training courses take place live as a video conference and are led by an experienced trainer. Participants can ask questions at any time.

What makes your training courses unique?

Our training courses combine hands-on tasks with live coding and solving real-life problems. Our experienced trainers guarantee a particularly good learning experience.

Are your training courses remote or in-person?

We offer our training courses both remotely and in person in order to meet the different requirements of our customers.

Can you tailor training courses specifically to our needs?

Naturally. We can customise our training courses to the individual needs of teams and their technology stacks at any time.

What advantages do individualised training courses offer?

In-house training courses allow you to arrange individual topics, flexible dates and guarantee targeted learning in a familiar environment. This is usually financially viable for four or more participants.

Is there a certification?

Yes, participants will receive a certificate on request after successful participation.
