Hands-on practicums

Real terminal work in your own projects, verified with evidence you submit — not multiple choice alone.

Module quizzes

Short, focused quizzes after every module confirm the concepts actually stuck.

Curriculum

Nine modules, each with a lesson, a quiz, and a hands-on practicum — following the course syllabus day by day.

Day 1–2Module 1

Foundations

What Claude Code is, where it fits in your workflow, and the core loop you'll use in every session: prompt, plan, edit, verify.

Day 3–5Module 2

Working in a Real Repo

Point Claude Code at an existing codebase, give it durable project context with CLAUDE.md, and use it for real git workflows — with you reviewing every change.

Day 5–6Module 3

Making CLAUDE.md Reusable & Building Your Developer Profile

Understand how CLAUDE.md files layer (project vs. global), and build a personal developer profile that carries your preferences into every project.

Day 6–7Module 4

Effective Prompting & Task Framing

The highest-leverage skill in this course: framing tasks so Claude Code's first attempt is usually right, and iterating productively when it isn't.

Day 8–10Module 5

Tooling & Extensions

Extend Claude Code beyond the default toolset: custom slash commands, MCP servers for external tools and data, automation hooks, and the permissions model that keeps it all safe.

Day 11–12Module 6

Testing & Debugging Workflows

Use Claude Code inside test-driven loops, apply a disciplined reproduce → isolate → fix debugging process, and handle failures that resist a first attempt.

Day 13–14Module 7

Multi-file & Large-scale Changes

Handle refactors that span many files, run migration tasks safely, and manage context limits when a codebase is bigger than any one session can hold.

Day 15–16Module 8

Team & Production Use

Bring Claude Code from your own workflow into a team's: code review, CI/CD, security review passes, and shared conventions that hold up under real production pressure.

Day 17–20Module 9

Capstone Project

Bring every module together on one real piece of work — a small app built end-to-end, or a meaningful refactor — using Claude Code across the full lifecycle: plan, code, test, debug, document.
