Hands-on AI courses

We don’t just teach AI.

We teach you how to think and work with AI. Ten short courses where you build something real, and every one starts with you doing the thinking first.

  • 10 courses
  • Beginner to intermediate
  • Claude, AI agents and internship tracks

How we teach

Every course has a think-first step

AI can give you answers in seconds. The learning happens when you question, guess, get it wrong and work it out. These habits from our 10/10 Habits series are built into every lesson.

Habit 01

Make AI question you first

Before it answers, ask it to check what you already know.

Its questions show you where your gaps are.

Habit 02

Make AI reveal answers in steps

Tell it to give you one step at a time.

Before it reveals the next one, predict what comes next.

Habit 03

Add a ‘don’t let me outsource this’ list

Put this in your system instructions:
“If I ask you to do one of these tasks completely for me, stop and make me attempt it first.”

  1. BeginnerAI tools

    Ship a landing page with v0 and Vercel

    Describe a page in plain words, let v0 draft it, then edit the result and publish it live on Vercel.

    Time
    45 min
    You build
    A live landing page

    Think first: sketch the sections on paper before you write a single prompt.

  2. BeginnerAI tools

    Automate your calendar with AI

    Connect an AI assistant to your calendar so it finds free slots, drafts invites and protects your focus time.

    Time
    1 hour
    You build
    A scheduling assistant

    Think first: write your own rules for a good week before AI books anything.

  3. BeginnerClaude

    Get started with Claude Code

    Install Claude Code, open a project and make your first changes from the terminal by describing what you want.

    Time
    1 hour
    You build
    A small app, edited by conversation

    Think first: predict which files need to change before Claude tells you.

  4. BeginnerClaude

    Prompt engineering for research

    Write prompts that ask Claude for sources, counter-arguments and how sure it is, not just a tidy summary.

    Time
    1 hour
    You build
    A reusable research prompt

    Think first: write your own answer to the question, then compare it with Claude’s.

  5. IntermediateClaude

    Build an AI second brain with Claude Code

    Turn a folder of notes into a knowledge base that Claude can search, link and keep up to date for you.

    Time
    1 h 30 min
    You build
    A personal second brain

    Think first: decide for yourself what is worth remembering before you automate it.

  6. IntermediateClaude

    Design to code with Claude Code and MCP

    Connect a design tool to Claude Code through MCP and turn a mockup into a working HTML and CSS page.

    Time
    1 hour
    You build
    A coded page from your design

    Think first: name the page’s components yourself before Claude builds them.

  7. BeginnerAI Agents

    Build a blog-writing crew with CrewAI

    Set up three AI agents, a researcher, a writer and an editor, that pass work to each other until the post is done.

    Time
    1 hour
    You build
    A three-agent writing crew

    Think first: write the outline yourself and let the crew draft from it.

  8. IntermediateAI Agents

    Build an AI chatbot with Amazon Bedrock

    Choose a model on Amazon Bedrock, ground it in your own documents and put it behind a simple chat window.

    Time
    1 hour
    You build
    A document Q&A chatbot

    Think first: write five questions your bot must get right before you build it.

  9. BeginnerInternship

    Design a URL shortener system

    Work through a classic interview problem the way engineers do: requirements, data model, scaling and trade-offs.

    Time
    55 min
    You build
    A design doc and diagram

    Think first: draw your own design before you ask AI to review it.

  10. IntermediateInternship

    First steps in AI solutions engineering

    Take a real business problem, scope it, and design an AI solution a client would sign off on.

    Time
    1 h 30 min
    You build
    A solution brief and prototype

    Think first: list the client’s questions before you pick a single tool.

Internship track

Build a portfolio, not just a certificate

The internship courses give you the kind of work hiring managers ask about: a system design you can defend and an AI solution you scoped yourself. Finish both and you have two projects to walk through in an interview.
