You made it through pre-flight
Fourteen checks. Claude 101, done properly.
Most people who start this course don’t finish it. Most who finish it don’t do the exercises. Most who do the exercises don’t build anything that sticks. You’re at the end — and if you did the work along the way, you’re ahead of the vast majority of knowledge workers trying to figure out AI right now.
That’s not a small thing.
What you’ve verified
The Claude 101 quiz has 10 questions. Here’s what they’re actually testing — not the answers, but the underlying judgment:
- Claude isn’t a chatbot. It’s a platform.
- Projects store knowledge. Skills perform tasks.
- Connectors only access what you already have permission to see.
- Enterprise Search needs admin setup before users can access it.
- RAG mode kicks in automatically when a project knowledge base gets large.
- Published artifacts are shareable by link; the conversation stays private.
- Good prompts set the stage, define the task, specify the rules.
- Generic responses get fixed with more context — not different tools.
- Claude Code is for codebases and dev automation.
- Research mode is for comprehensive multi-source investigations.

The only thing left
You now have the foundation. The rest comes from doing the work — one real task, with real context, iterated until it’s actually good. Pick something this week. Don’t start with the hard stuff. Start with the thing you do every week that takes longer than it should.
