Who it is for

Who this
is for.

Employees

You already use Claude in chat and want to get more out of it: projects, connections, your own skills.

Team leads

You want to go through it yourself before you bring your team along. And afterwards you know which questions will come up.

Beginners

You have never programmed. We explain Claude Code from scratch.

And who
it is not for.

Colleagues in AI training

Are you an AI coach or trainer yourself, or do you run an academy? Then this guide is not for you. We built it for teams who work with Claude, and we do not release it as a template for other courses. We still enjoy talking shop with colleagues: Write to us.

One access, one person

Your access is personal and works on up to two devices, for example laptop and phone. Please do not pass it on. Colleagues get their own, and there is a team version for whole teams. We review unusual logins, details in the privacy policy. Thanks for playing fair.
