Why Claude Training Matters
Claude is one of the most powerful AI assistants available today – and one of the most underused.
Most people scratch the surface, asking the occasional question and wondering why the results feel a bit hit and miss.
The difference between a frustrating AI experience and a genuinely useful one almost always comes down to skills.
Knowing how to write effective prompts, how to set up Claude for your specific work, and how to use its more powerful features transforms what you can achieve.
Whether you're new to Claude or already using it and want to get much more out of it, this practical one-day course will give you the skills, confidence, and techniques to make Claude work hard for you – every day.
You'll learn how to write prompts that produce accurate, tailored results, how to use Claude for research, writing, analysis, and complex tasks, and how to take advantage of advanced features including Claude Skills, integrations with the tools you already use, and much more.
By the end of the session, you'll have a clear understanding of where Claude adds the most value in your work – and exactly how to use it.
You’ll learn how to:
-
Write powerful prompts that produce accurate, useful, and well-formatted results
-
Use Claude for research, writing, summarising, and analysis
-
Set up Projects and custom instructions so Claude understands your context
-
Create Claude Skills to automate and repeat complex workflows
-
Connect Claude to Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, and other tools
-
Work with uploaded documents, spreadsheets, and files
-
Use Claude responsibly and safely in a professional environment
-
Build a personal prompt library and Skills toolkit you can keep using after the course

To access all the features of Claude and get the most out of the course I recommend being on a paid plan such as Pro, Team or Enterprise. If you are on the free version you will still get a lot out of the course but won't be able to access all of the features and may come up against usage limits during the day.

Meet Your Trainer
Mark Baglow
Hi, I'm Mark. When you book this course, you get me – not an associate, not a script read off a slide.
I don't just teach Claude - I use it in business, from research and writing to building custom Skills. So this is what genuinely works in real work, including where Claude falls short and how to work around it. You're learning from someone in the tools daily, not reading from a manual.
I've spent fifteen years in the world of education, training and development. During my career I learned the thing that still shapes every course I run: people don't remember what you tell them, they remember what they do.
My training is practical, hands-on and refreshingly jargon-free – real tools you'll use on Monday morning, not dry theory you'll have forgotten by lunch.
I'm a certified DISC analyst, and I've designed and delivered leadership, management and communication training across sectors including education, software and financial services.
I'm based in Birmingham – right in the middle of the country – so I can reach you easily for in-person training anywhere in the UK, or even internationally! I also provide live online training if that suits you better.
I keep my business deliberately personal: you deal with me directly, from first enquiry to post-course follow-up, and every session is built around your people and your real-world challenges.
