About the portal
Everything students need before, during and after the bootcamp
This website is designed as a single public-facing landing page by Dr Julius Sechang Mboli, DAIM Centre, University of Hull. It is used here to provide orientation, logistics, curriculum highlights and direct download access to the latest materials for DAIM SUMMER AGENTIC AI BOOTCAMP.
🧠
Modern agentic AI workflow focus
Built around LangGraph, tool use, retrieval, orchestration, Human-in-the-Loop approval patterns and realistic adult-learning examples.
⚙️
Inclusive setup options
Students can work with Groq, local Ollama models, or a safe offline fallback path when premium API access is not available.
Bootcamp highlights
What makes this experience different
01

Quick setup
What students should do first
Download the pack
Download the latest ZIP and extract it locally before opening the notebooks.
Create provider accounts
Create a Groq account for fast hosted inference, or prepare local models in Ollama if preferred.
Install dependencies
Use the requirements file or a clean virtual environment before launching Jupyter Notebook or JupyterLab.
Run Day 0 first
Day 0 validates the environment, shows provider status, selected model, timings and troubleshooting guidance.
FAQ
Common student questions
Do I need a paid API key to take part?
No. The resources are designed to be financially inclusive. Students can use Groq, local Ollama models, or an offline fallback path where appropriate.
Which notebook should I open first?
Start with the Day 0 setup and provider diagnostics notebook. It is designed to confirm that your environment is working correctly before progressing further.
Why are progress indicators shown in the notebooks?
Some models and workflows take time to run. The revised notebooks include progress feedback, timing details and model metadata so you always know what is happening.
What should I pay attention to during the Amazon visit?
Observe automation, decision support, safety, process optimisation, human supervision, coordination and operational workflows that could benefit from agentic AI.
