Learn AI by using it on your real work.

The tools change every month, so it is hard to know what to learn first. These free courses start where you are and end with Claude or ChatGPT doing a job you do every week.

  1. 1

    Find your level. Take the free check, about fifteen minutes, or pick the description below that sounds like you.

  2. 2

    Learn the tools. Short courses by level take you from your first conversation to building with agents.

  3. 3

    Hand over one job. Pick a task you repeat and set up AI to do the first draft, using your own work the whole way through.

Learn the tools

Start with the course that describes you. Each names the products and says which to use for what. Products change often; we last checked these in July 2026.

  1. New to AI · 6 lessons

    Starting from zero

    You have heard about ChatGPT, maybe typed a question into it once. Nothing here assumes prior experience.

    Your first assistant, your first conversations, and the two limits to learn on day one.

  2. Getting comfortable · 6 lessons

    The everyday assistant

    You chat with an assistant a few times a week and want it woven through your actual work, not just visited.

    Writing, research, documents, meetings, and images — the right tool for each, by name.

  3. Daily user · 6 lessons

    The power user

    AI is already in your week. This course makes it a dependable part of your work: model choice, serious research, data work, and the first taste of agents.

    Model pickers, reasoning modes, data analysis, tools you build by talking, and assistants that act.

  4. Advanced · 6 lessons

    Building and automating

    You want AI that works without you in the room — apps, coding agents, pipelines, and private models — whether or not you call yourself technical.

    Building with AI by describing what you want, coding agents, APIs, no-code pipelines, and models that run on your own machine.

  5. Every level · 5 lessons

    Choosing your stack

    Anyone assembling or auditing their AI lineup — which ecosystems to live in, what to pay for, and how to keep the whole thing current.

    The ecosystems compared, the subscription math, data controls, and an opinionated shortlist by job.

Hand over one job

Each course takes one task you already do and walks you through it, from picking the work to checking what AI hands back. Every step has instructions for both Claude and ChatGPT.

Not sure where to start? The free check takes about fifteen minutes. Your result shows your strongest and weakest skills, so you know what to work on first.
