Anthropic's flagship tool-neutral course on working well with AI, built with academics from University College Cork and Ringling College. It teaches the 4D Framework (Delegation, Description, Discernment, Diligence) plus a grounding in how generative AI works and effective prompting.
The step after AI Foundations: learners take a workflow they repeat, break it into steps, find where AI adds value and build a practical plan to use AI across that process, turning one-off prompts into repeatable workflows.
