Analyze Agent Performance: Build and Test is an intermediate course for data analysts, ML engineers, and developers tasked with optimizing AI systems. In a world where agentic AI is increasingly common, it is not enough to build an agent—you must prove its effectiveness. This course equips you with the data-driven skills to measure, monitor, and improve AI agents built with frameworks like LangChain, Autogen, and CrewAI.
You will learn to transform raw, noisy logs into actionable KPIs by applying data aggregation techniques with SQL and dbt. Through hands-on labs, you will design and execute controlled A/B experiments, comparing agent versions to identify meaningful improvements. You will master core statistical methods, including the Chi-square test, to determine whether your results are statistically significant or just random chance. You will be able to move beyond correlation to causation, making objective, evidence-based recommendations on deploying agent enhancements.
This module establishes the foundation for effective AI agent performance analysis. Learners will move beyond raw system logs to create structured, high-level metrics suitable for business intelligence and monitoring. The module focuses on applying data aggregation techniques with SQL and dbt to transform operational data into meaningful key performance indicators (KPIs) like conversation counts and latency.

Module Description: This module equips learners with the skills to scientifically prove the effectiveness of changes to their AI agents. Learners will move from correlation to causation by designing and analyzing controlled A/B experiments. The module provides hands-on experience with statistical hypothesis testing, focusing on the Chi-square test to determine if observed performance improvements are statistically significant.

Coursera brings together a diverse network of subject matter experts who have demonstrated their expertise through professional industry experience or strong academic backgrounds. These instructors design and teach courses that make practical, career-relevant skills accessible to learners worldwide.
When will I have access to the lectures and assignments?
To access the course materials, assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience when you enroll in a course. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid. The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
What will I get if I subscribe to this Specialization?
When you enroll in the course, you get access to all of the courses in the Specialization, and you earn a certificate when you complete the work. Your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile.
Is financial aid available?
Yes. In select learning programs, you can apply for financial aid or a scholarship if you can’t afford the enrollment fee. If fin aid or scholarship is available for your learning program selection, you’ll find a link to apply on the description page.
