Summary

Our new course, Claude: Interface and Core Features, builds a working knowledge of Anthropic's AI assistant from the ground up. Learners will get oriented in the interface, explore Claude's wider product ecosystem, and take a practical look at its five key features, before applying what they have learned to common professional tasks. Now available in the AI collection.

Most professionals who use Claude are using a fraction of what it can do. Our new course, Claude: Interface and Core Features, gives learners a proper grounding in the platform: how it is structured, what its features actually do, and how to apply it confidently to everyday work.

The course moves from interface orientation through to hands-on practice, covering the full Claude ecosystem, the terminology that distinguishes it from other AI platforms, and the failure modes worth knowing how to handle.

🎯 What This Course Enables

Learners will be able to:

• Identify the core areas of the Claude interface and manage conversations effectively

• Switch between model tiers and configure key settings before getting started

• Understand how usage, plans, and subscriptions work across the Claude ecosystem

• Identify Claude products beyond the chat interface and understand where each fits

• Set up and use Claude's five key features: Projects, artifacts, Skills, extended thinking, and memory

• Map Claude's terminology to concepts from other AI platforms and familiar workflows

• Distinguish between in-thread output and artifact output, and know when each is appropriate

• Apply Claude to common professional tasks, including drafting, summarising, and refining outputs

• Recognise and correct Claude's common failure modes within a conversation

📚 Course Highlights

• The Interface: Orients learners in Claude's layout, shows how to start and manage conversations, and covers the settings worth checking before getting to work.

• The Wider Ecosystem: Steps back from the chat interface to explain how usage and plans work, introduce other Claude products, and give a first look at the features explored in depth later in the course.

• Five Key Features: A focused look at Projects, artifacts, Skills, extended thinking, and memory, covering what each one does, how to set it up, and when it is worth using.

• Claude's Vocabulary: Unpacks Claude's terminology and maps it to familiar concepts, clarifies the distinction between in-thread and artifact output, and explores what makes Claude distinctive compared to other AI platforms.

• Claude in Practice: Puts everything together through common professional tasks: drafting, summarising, and refining outputs within a conversation, with attention to recognising and correcting the failure modes most likely to appear.

💡 Why This Matters

Claude is only as useful as the person using it understands it. A proper grounding in the interface, features, and vocabulary makes the difference between a tool you reach for occasionally and one that becomes a reliable part of how you work. This course gives learners that grounding in a single, focused session.
