Course Overview
About This Course
AI is no longer just a chatbot. We now have AI agents: software that can plan and complete complex, multi-step tasks on its own.
These agents can organize files, do research, build presentations, drive Chrome for you, and—with Computer Use—even take over your entire desktop. Claude Cowork is one of the most powerful agents available right now: built by Anthropic, built for everyone, and designed as a desktop app that gets work done without requiring coding skills or AI expertise.
In this course, you will go from zero to fluent. You will learn how Cowork actually thinks, when to use it instead of regular chat, and how to drive its features the way the pros do: not by guessing, but by understanding the mental model behind every workflow.
What You'll Learn
You’ll build practical Claude Cowork fluency through hands-on workflows: meeting prep, custom skills, persistent projects, live dashboards, scheduled tasks, browser control, mobile dispatch, and secure desktop automation.
Cowork foundations
Understand the interface, permission modes, file sandboxing, and when to use Cowork instead of regular chat so you can choose the right tool for each job.
Outcome-based prompting
Write clear, outcome-driven tasks for multi-step work and store instructions or context with global rules and CLAUDE.md so Cowork stays aligned across sessions.
Connected workflows
Plug Cowork into your apps with connectors and MCP, then build practical workflows such as a meeting-prep document from Calendar, Gmail, and local notes.
Projects and memory
Organize work with projects, persistent memory, linked context, and live artifact dashboards that can refresh from connected data sources.
Skills, plugins, and automation
Teach Cowork repeatable workflows with skills and plugins, invoke them via the / slash menu, and automate recurring work with scheduled tasks.
Browser, mobile, and desktop control
Use Claude in Chrome for browser control, Dispatch to run Cowork from your phone, and Computer Use to hand Claude your machine while staying secure and in control.
