What you'll learn

AI chat often creates answers, but the real work still falls on you to turn those answers into finished deliverables. In this course, First Look: Claude Cowork, you’ll learn how to delegate outcome-focused tasks to Claude so it can plan, execute, and produce real documents, spreadsheets, and reports directly in your workspace. First, you’ll explore how Cowork differs from chat and how its planning and execution loop works. Next, you’ll discover how to manage files, generate professional outputs, and steer tasks mid-flight. Finally, you’ll examine plugins, connectors, and key security and governance considerations. When you’re finished, you’ll have the skills and knowledge needed to confidently integrate Claude Cowork into your daily workflow and reduce the “AI babysitting” overhead.
