Instruqt Powers Large-Scale Agentic AI Training At Google Next 2026

KUALA LUMPUR, May 25 (Bernama) -- Instruqt, the hands-on product experience platform, announced that Google Cloud Security used its platform to train more than 150 practitioners on Agentic artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities during Google Next 2026.

The session, branded the Agentic SOC Experience, was described as one of the largest hands-on Agentic AI training workshops held at a major industry conference this year, according to Instruqt in a statement.

Using Instruqt’s platform, participants created dedicated Google Cloud Vertex AI environments, enabling them to build and test AI agents in isolated sandbox settings instead of relying on slide-based demonstrations.

Instruqt Vice President of Marketing, Tyler Crumpler said companies developing AI products must focus on enabling customers to use the technologies effectively through real-world environments and practical applications.

Meanwhile, Google Cloud Security pre-sales engineer, Keith Manville said the platform enabled participants to gain practical understanding of agentic AI tools and workflows through interactive learning.

The initiative reflects broader industry efforts to narrow the gap between AI product launches and customer adoption, as enterprises seek more practical and scalable training methods.

Citing the 2026 State of Developer Adoption Report by SlashData, the company said 92 per cent of practitioners face at least one major adoption challenge, including technology complexity, team misalignment and outdated content.
