About Course
You already work with Claude via claude.ai. You know how to write good prompts and how to set up Projects. But there is a layer deeper: the Claude API. That layer allows you to not just use Claude, but integrate it into your own tools, workflows and business processes. Without returning to chat every time.
This course starts with no prior technical knowledge. You will learn what the API is, how to create and secure an API key, and how to deploy Claude in real workflows. First via no-code tools like Zapier and Make, then via direct API calls with Python. There are two learning routes: a no-code route (5 to 6 hours) and a full route including Python (8 to 10 hours).
Each module contains teaching material, practical tips, home assignments and knowledge checks with immediate feedback. You build a complete API workflow that you can use immediately upon completion. Upon completion, you will receive a certificate.
