Advanced Claude Chat

Course Outline

You already know your way around Claude. You can prompt effectively, you understand the basics of data privacy and workplace usage, and you're getting value from it daily.

But you know there's more. Projects, Skills, Connectors, Research mode, Artifacts. You've heard of them, maybe tried a few, but you're only scratching the surface.

This course closes that gap. We work through every major feature in Claude's chat interface, on both claude.ai and the Desktop app, and show you how to set them up, use them properly, and combine them into workflows that compound over time.
