Before you sign up

For developers who want to learn prompting techniques by running code step by step in Jupyter notebooks. The material is free and sits in a five-course sequence from API basics to tool use. The catch: you need an Anthropic API key, will pay small API usage costs, and are expected to finish the API Fundamentals course first. There's no certificate. It works as a beginner starting point for coders. A free alternative with a certificate is ChatGPT Prompt Engineering for Developers from DeepLearning.AI.

What you'll learn
