Claude can write, analyze, and build alongside you, but reliable results take more than a good prompt. You need to know how to teach it your way of working, check its answers, and use it responsibly. This hands-on track takes you from your first conversations with Claude to building your own reusable tools.
Get Started with Claude
Begin with the essentials. You'll learn what Claude is and how to write prompts with enough context for it to act on. You'll attach files and images, search the web for sourced answers, create documents and slides, and hand Claude whole multi-step tasks. You'll also set up Skills and Projects so recurring work doesn't need re-explaining, and connect Claude to the services you already use.
Make Claude Your Own
Then go deeper into customizing Claude for the work you do every week:
- Capture a recurring job in a Skill so Claude does it your way every time, then test, improve, and share it
- Install, adapt, and build plugins that package the skills and connectors a job needs
- Create interactive dashboards, trackers, and checklists with Claude Artifacts, then reuse and share them
Analyze Data with Claude
Get trustworthy answers from your spreadsheets and databases. You'll clean messy files, build formulas by describing them in plain English, combine sheets, and turn tables into charts and simple dashboards, verifying Claude's answers before you rely on them.
Spend Tokens Wisely and Use AI Responsibly
You'll learn what drives the cost of every AI conversation and how to manage context, tools, and model choice to get more from your plan. You'll also develop the judgment to evaluate AI output for reliability and bias, protect the information you share, and take ownership of your work.
Launch Your Claude Journey
By the end of this track, you'll be able to:
- Write clear prompts and delegate whole tasks to Claude with confidence
- Customize Claude with skills, plugins, and artifacts
- Use Claude to clean, analyze, and visualize data, and verify the results
- Manage token usage to keep the cost of AI under control
- Apply safe, ethical, and responsible AI practices at work
Start this track to build the fundamentals you need to work effectively with Claude.
