Course Outline for Claude Advanced

Where Advanced Use Begins

  • Systems rather than one-off prompts: what advanced use means in practice
  • Choosing between Claude Opus, Sonnet and Haiku
  • Extended thinking: when the extra reasoning pays for itself
  • Matching the layer to the task: chat, Project, Style, Skill, connector or agent

Advanced Prompt Architecture

  • Structuring long prompts: sections, labels and delimiters
  • Few-shot prompting: teaching format and judgement by example
  • Separating the brief from the material
  • Asking Claude to plan first, then approving the plan
  • Building evaluation criteria into the prompt
  • Meta-prompting: using Claude to write and critique your prompts

Projects as Working Systems

  • Project instructions as a specification
  • Curating knowledge: what to upload, what to leave out
  • Instructions, Style or prompt: which layer holds which rule
  • What memory holds and where it fits alongside a Project
  • Versioning instructions and keeping a change log
  • Shared team Projects and who owns the instructions (Team and Enterprise)
  • Diagnosing a Project that has stopped behaving

Skills: Packaging Repeatable Work

  • Skill, Project, Style or saved prompt: what each is for
  • Anatomy of a Skill: instructions, templates and worked examples
  • Writing a Skill without code, from a process you already carry out
  • Descriptions that make a Skill fire reliably
  • Practical exercise: turning a recurring task into a working Skill
  • Demonstration: interactive Artifacts as small internal tools

Connectors and Live Data

  • How Claude reaches other systems and the connector directory
  • Permissions in plain English: what Claude sees and acts as
  • Working across two or more systems in a single request
  • Failure modes: stale data, partial access, silent gaps
  • Getting a connector approved internally (Team and Enterprise)

Agentic Working: Delegating Multi-Step Tasks

  • From asking for output to delegating a task with constraints
  • Claude Cowork: working directly with your own files and folders and why it is not Microsoft 365 Copilot Cowork
  • The delegation brief: goal, boundaries, checkpoints, definition of when it's complete
  • Approval gates: deciding what Claude may do unattended
  • Scheduled tasks and Claude in Chrome browsing on your behalf
  • Practical exercise: delegating a multi-step task end to end

Quality Control and Reliability

  • A small test set of prompts you rerun whenever something changes
  • Comparing outputs across models and versions of your instructions
  • Where hallucination hides in long agentic runs
  • Deciding which steps need a human signature

Building and Documenting Your Own Advanced Workflow

  • Choosing a recurring job from your own week worth systematising
  • Designing it: which layers, in what order
  • Building it: Project, Style, Skill and connector working together
  • Testing it against a case you already know
  • Documenting it so a colleague could pick it up without you
