capability building,
designed for your organisation.
A custom-built corporate programme for AI engineers, senior software engineers, platform engineers, backend developers, and solution architects (3+ years) building portable AI integrations across Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and other MCP clients. We design the curriculum around your tech stack, project archetypes, and target business outcomes — delivered by domain-expert trainers and reinforced through AI-evaluated assessments.
A modular syllabus, built to be tailored.
Below is our reference curriculum. Every syllabus we deliver is tailored to your customer-specific requirements module depth, sequencing, lab environments, and capstone projects are adapted to your team's starting point, tech stack, and target outcomes.
- The integration explosion problem MCP addresses: M tools × N hosts → M+N
- MCP's design choices: JSON-RPC, primitives (tools, resources, prompts), capability negotiation
- MCP vs. function calling vs. plugins vs. extensions the conceptual differences
- Why MCP is gaining adoption beyond Anthropic ChatGPT, Cursor, others

Where your team is now vs where they'll be after the programme.
Where most teams start
- ·Aware of MCP as Anthropic's emerging standard but unable to build, test, or deploy MCP servers
- ·Limited fluency with the MCP specification capabilities, primitives (tools, resources, prompts), transport mechanisms
- ·No experience with the official SDKs (Python, TypeScript, Java, C#)
- ·Cannot design MCP servers for cross-client portability Claude Desktop vs. ChatGPT vs. Cursor have different consumption patterns
- ·Unfamiliar with MCP security implications: prompt injection via tool outputs, capability scoping, sandboxing
- ·No production deployment experience local MCP works, but enterprise-scale MCP requires additional engineering
Where they'll arrive
- ✓MCP specification mastery fluent in the full spec including capabilities, tools, resources, prompts, sampling, and roots
- ✓SDK fluency productive in TypeScript and Python MCP SDKs; aware of Java/C# alternatives
- ✓Cross-client portability designs MCP servers that work across Claude Desktop, Claude Code, ChatGPT, Cursor, custom hosts
- ✓Production deployment ships MCP servers as containerised, observable, secured services with proper authentication
- ✓Security discipline applies prompt-injection defence, capability scoping, sandboxing, and audit logging
- ✓Ecosystem awareness knows the MCP server ecosystem and can build on or extend existing servers
Built for L&D outcomes, not seat counts.
Model Context Protocol corporate training built for engineers
This Model Context Protocol corporate training is designed for AI engineers, platform engineers, backend developers, and solution architects who need to build, secure, and ship production MCP servers not a conceptual overview for non-technical audiences.
Spec-first most engineers building MCP have not read it
The programme opens with a clause-by-clause walkthrough of the MCP specification before any code is written. Engineers who understand the spec build better servers, choose the right primitives, and avoid the design mistakes that break cross-client portability.
Build production MCP servers not just prototypes
Every lab in this MCP server development training is oriented toward production output. Learners build production MCP servers with OAuth 2.1 authentication, multi-transport support, prompt-injection defences, audit logging, and container-ready deployment not toy demos.
Corporate AI integration training across the full client ecosystem
This corporate AI integration training covers cross-client portability across Claude Desktop, Claude Code, ChatGPT, and Cursor. Learners validate their servers against 3+ hosts in the capstone essential for organisations building integrations that must work across the enterprise AI stack.
Security and observability built into every module
MCP expands an agent's tool surface. This programme treats security prompt injection, sandboxing, capability scoping, audit logging and observability tracing, metrics, cost attribution as first-class engineering disciplines, not afterthoughts.
Model Context Protocol course with certification included
This Model Context Protocol course prepares learners for the MCP Engineer certification with an 84% cohort first-attempt pass rate. Certification preparation is woven into every milestone not bolted on as an end-of-programme sprint.
A four-milestone path from skill gap to client-ready.
MCP specification & engineering baseline
Learners build a precise mental model of the MCP architecture hosts, clients, servers, primitives, capability negotiation, and transport mechanisms through a clause-by-clause specification walkthrough and a guided setup lab. This Model Context Protocol corporate training begins with the spec, not the scaffold, because engineers who understand the standard build better integrations.
MCP server construction tools, resources, prompts
Learners build production MCP servers incrementally across three primitive types tools, resources, and prompts using the official TypeScript and Python SDKs. Each lab in this MCP server development training closes with a working, domain-specific server component that is carried forward into the capstone.
Production engineering auth, transport, security, observability, deployment
Learners apply enterprise-grade production discipline: OAuth 2.1 authentication, transport selection, prompt-injection red-teaming, sandboxing, tracing, metrics, and containerised deployment. This is where corporate AI integration training separates engineers who can prototype MCP from those who can ship and operate it at enterprise scale.
Capstone production MCP server, cross-client validation & certification
Each learner team designs, builds, and presents a production-grade enterprise MCP server validated across Claude Desktop, Claude Code, and one additional host. Parallel MCP Engineer certification preparation built into this Model Context Protocol course from milestone one closes with practice exams, gap analysis, and exam-day strategy.

Taught by people who've actually shipped the work.
Built for L&D leaders and their learners.
Who this is for
- ·AI engineers and senior software engineers (3+ years) who need Model Context Protocol corporate training to build, secure, and deploy enterprise-grade MCP servers across the full AI integration stack
- ·Platform engineers and backend developers responsible for AI integration infrastructure who require structured MCP server development training aligned to their organisation's tech stack and deployment patterns
- ·Solution architects designing portable AI integration strategies who need corporate AI integration training that covers cross-client portability, authentication, transport selection, and production operations
- ·Microsoft, Google, and other cloud partner engineering teams building MCP-based integrations for enterprise clients who need cohort-based training with domain-specific capstone output
- ·L&D leaders and engineering managers at AI-forward organisations looking for a Model Context Protocol course that delivers measurable engineering output working production servers, not just certification credits
Pre-requisites
- ·3+ years of software engineering, platform engineering, or backend development experience this programme is designed for practitioners who write and ship production code
- ·Working proficiency in TypeScript or Python labs use both SDKs; Java and C# familiarity is useful but not required
- ·Basic familiarity with REST APIs, JSON schemas, and modern web authentication patterns such as OAuth 2.0 the programme extends these foundations into MCP-specific patterns
- ·Enterprise cohorts should confirm development environment access and align data-handling and network security expectations before programme start

"The specification walkthrough was the most valuable session. Our team had been building MCP servers for weeks but had never read the spec properly. Within two sessions we identified three design mistakes we had already shipped and knew exactly how to fix them."
"The security module was exceptional. Prompt injection via tool outputs is a real attack vector that most teams building MCP servers are completely unaware of. The red-team lab made the risk concrete and the mitigations practical."
"Our capstone server is now in production. It passed the cross-client validation against Claude Desktop, Claude Code, and ChatGPT, and the OAuth and observability patterns we built during the programme are exactly what our enterprise clients required."
Questions L&D teams ask before signing.
MCP stands for Model Context Protocol. It is an open-source standard that allows AI applications to connect with external tools, files, databases, APIs, workflows, and enterprise systems. MCP was created at Anthropic by David Soria Parra and Justin Spahr-Summers.
