Summary
A practical starting course on using Claude for everyday work. It walks through a first conversation, getting better answers, and the main features such as projects, artifacts, skills, connected tools and research, then shows role-based examples.
Google's entry-level course on using generative AI tools at work: generating ideas, researching, drafting and speeding up routine tasks.
