AI for Friends
Written for HR, Industrial Engineering, International Relations, Legal, and Marketing professionals with zero technical background. Four modules, one straight line: understand how AI actually works, prompt it well, point Claude Code at your own files and set up a Claude Project, then automate a recurring workflow.
How AI models actually work, the difference between prompt and context engineering, four techniques that cover 90% of daily use, and which Claude model to reach for.
A low-stakes practice room for anyone who's never opened a terminal or a code editor. Skip straight to Module 3 if both already feel familiar — nothing here is a prerequisite.
Point an AI assistant at a folder of your real documents and have it draft, edit, and organize them. Full install, a hands-on tutorial, and then a Claude Project so it remembers your standing instructions on the web too.
Teach Claude Code to read and write native Office files, connect to live systems, and chain several steps into one repeatable, automated workflow.
How to Use This Course
Go in order. Module 1 defines terms every later lesson assumes you know. Don't skip it.
Module 2 is optional. It's a warm-up for the terminal and VS Code. If both already feel familiar, jump straight to Module 3.
Practice as you go. Every lesson includes prompts you can run immediately in Claude. Open claude.ai and actually run them.
Module 4 goes further. Once Claude Code and Claude Projects (Module 3) feel comfortable, automate one recurring workflow (Module 4).
