"Incredibly educational days with Andreas as a Java teacher. He has extensive knowledge of everything from the older Java versions to the newer ones. Andreas is very good at explaining programming languages in detail and in a way that is easy to understand most of the time! The lessons how challenging and fun that really made one think and train one's problem solving skills. In addition, Andreas has good pedagogy and is very responsive and helpful when you need help. Can strongly recommend Andreas as a teacher of Java and programming in general!"
Spring AI Foundations: AI Engineer
Become a Java AI Engineer. Master Spring AI 1.1, RAG architecture, @Tool agents, and standardized integration with Model Context Protocol (MCP).
Comprehensive skills to architect AI systems using private data (RAG), autonomous tools, and standardized MCP interfaces.
Development teams looking to move from experimentation to delivering complete, production-ready AI solutions on the Java platform.
Several years of experience in Java and Spring Boot 4 is required to keep up with this intensive expert track.
Curriculum & Highlights
Challenges we address
"How is a vendor-agnostic AI architecture built that can switch between leading models?"
"How is proprietary data from SQL and documents integrated into searchable context via RAG?"
"How are @Tool and @McpTool used to let an AI perform secure actions in external systems?"
After this track, a customized deep-dive workshop focused entirely on specific domain models and internal systems can be arranged. →
Pricing is based on scope and number of participants. Both remote and onsite delivery is available.

Expertise through Active Learning
Java and the Spring Framework have been my core focus for over 20 years. Today, my mission is primarily to help organizations step into the future by integrating intelligent agents and AI-driven features into modern Java systems.
Actlea stands for Active Learning – the philosophy that programming is best learned by writing code, not by watching slides. My workshops focus on intensive, hands-on exercises designed to solve real-world problems.
I deliver proven training concepts globally across all timezones. While I specialize in remote delivery, I love to travel for onsite workshops. My modules are ready for immediate impact but can be tailored to your team's specific requirements.
