Overview
A first chat is only the start. This course goes on to projects and connected tools.
Claude 101 is a two-and-a-half-hour Academy course for people starting to use Claude at work, new users and existing ones alike. You refine prompts, organize work with Projects and skills, create artifacts, and connect tools, company knowledge and the web. Any Claude account works with no AI experience, though some features need a paid or Team plan; one quiz earns the badge.

Course outline
From a first chat
From a first chat
to Claude connected to your work.
We design this course ourselves. Anthropic issues the credential, and LUNARTECH is independent of Anthropic.
Begin by learning what Claude is and how to talk to it. You hold a first conversation, see how the desktop app is laid out, and learn why clear requests get better answers.
- What Claude is and what it can do
- Starting a conversation
- Finding your way around the desktop app
- Models and settings that matter
- Where Claude falls short
You build A first conversation that completes one real task from your work.
Results improve when you refine. You write clear prompts, adjust them when an answer falls short, and use the AI Fluency framework to think about what to hand over and what to check.
- Writing a clear prompt
- Adding context and examples
- Refining after a weak answer
- Delegation, description, discernment and diligence
- Checking Claude’s answers
- Building a habit of iteration
You build A prompt improved over three rounds, with notes on what each change did.
Retyping context wastes time. You use Projects to hold files and instructions for ongoing work, and skills to capture ways of working that you want repeated.
- What a Project is
- Adding files and instructions
- Using a Project across conversations
- What skills are
- Using a skill in your work
You build A Project set up for a real ongoing piece of work.
Claude can make things as well as discuss them. You create artifacts such as designs, decks and documents, refine them in conversation, and share them with others.
- What artifacts are
- Creating a document
- Creating a design or a deck
- Refining an artifact by conversation
- Sharing and collaborating
You build A shared artifact made for a real purpose, refined over several rounds.
Claude gets more useful when it sees your work. You connect tools with connectors, search company knowledge with Enterprise Search, and run Research for questions that need many sources.
- What connectors are
- Connecting a tool
- Searching company knowledge
- Running Research
- Judging what Claude found
- Keeping connections safe and private
You build A research brief built from a connected tool and a Research run.
You see Claude used for role-based tasks, then explore the other surfaces: Claude Code, Claude Design and Claude in Chrome, to decide which fits your own work.
- Examples of role-based use
- Applying a use case to your own role
- Claude Code at a glance
- Claude Design at a glance
- Claude in Chrome at a glance
- Planning your next steps
You build A personal plan listing three tasks you will give Claude and the surface for each.

Reviews
Real stories from the community.
LUNARTECH Academy has been the most empowering learning experience of my life, giving me a clear, structured path from the absolute basics to building real-world AI systems with confidence.
Your page is fantastic. As a bachelor’s student in Data Science now accepted for a master’s at UConn, your work has been a real source of motivation.
The programme’s clear, bite-sized content and practical projects dramatically improved my speed from fuzzy idea to MVP and my ability to communicate AI value. I followed the system, and it works.
I really appreciate your teaching style and the way you break down complex topics. It has been incredibly helpful.
After years working mainly with R for econometrics, I found your Python machine learning course a refreshing and engaging way to learn Python.
As a Data Science graduate, I want to thank you for the effort you put into making videos to support growing data scientists.
I’ve been following your work since taking your machine learning course, and I’m impressed by your practical approach to applying AI.
