What you'll learn

Developers are adopting GenAI tools without a shared framework for understanding what's changing, what to use, or how to stay accountable. In this course, Introduction to GenAI in the Software Development Lifecycle, you'll gain the ability to evaluate and responsibly adopt GenAI across the software lifecycle. First, you'll explore how GenAI is reshaping the developer role and where its risks lie. Next, you'll discover the landscape of GenAI tools across planning, coding, testing, and DevOps. Finally, you'll learn how to apply a responsible-use foundation by covering shared responsibility, ethics, IP, and governance, and how adoption differs across methodologies and team structures. When you're finished with this course, you'll have the skills and knowledge of GenAI in the SDLC needed to evaluate tools, manage risk, and lead adoption on your own team.
