Google Gemini Master Course
A complete 156-lesson journey from absolute beginner to professional platform engineer covering every Gemini surface: gemini.google.com, Google AI Studio, Vertex AI, the Gemini API, function calling, grounding with Google Search, RAG, and beyond.
What This Course Is
Google Gemini is Google's most capable AI model family and assistant platform. It spans multiple surfaces: the consumer-facing gemini.google.com chat, Google AI Studio for developers, Vertex AI for enterprise, the Gemini API for programmatic access, and integrations across Google Workspace. Gemini 2.5 Pro and Flash represent the latest generation with multimodal capabilities, long context windows, and deep Google ecosystem integration.
This course takes you from "I just tried gemini.google.com" all the way to "I architect production platforms powered by Gemini." Every lesson explains why the topic matters, walks through how it works, gives a real-world example, surfaces common mistakes, and ends with an exercise plus an optional professional challenge.
The curriculum tracks Gemini's current state as of August 2026: Gemini 2.5 Pro and Flash models, Google AI Studio, Vertex AI, function calling, grounding with Google Search, RAG with vector databases, and the Gemini API. Where product behavior is version-sensitive, lessons carry a Last verified: YYYY-MM-DD stamp.
