Introduction to Claude for Beginners

What the course covers

• Eleven modules compare Claude chat, Skills, Cowork, Design and Code; cover professional email, reports, proposals and meeting summaries; then marketing, sales/prospecting, product work and strategy; and build a reusable Skill, automate a file workflow in Cowork, make a landing page in Design, ship an automation script with Claude Code, and assess reliability/responsible use.

Practice & assessment

Four assignments are listed. Page outcomes promise a reusable Skill, file workflow, landing page and automation script; module listings also show a communication assignment, marketing campaign calendar/copy, sales pipeline toolkit, and further modules on product/strategy/automation. These are provider-stated learning outputs, not independently tested artifacts.
