The Three Claude Courses Worth Your Time If You Run a Small Business
19 June 2026
Claude just dropped 13 free certified AI courses. Most are built for developers, but three of them will change how you run your week.
The courses worth your time teach you to use Claude the way a working professional does: getting faster output, handling more without more hours, and handing off the tasks that eat your morning.
I'd start with Claude 101. It walks through every feature using real use cases from inside a running business.
Second is AI Fluency. It teaches you how to hand off work to AI properly, how to write a brief that gets something usable back, and how to tell whether the output is worth sending.
Third is Introduction to Claude Cowork. This is the one that changes the most. You give Claude access to your files and folders on your computer. From that point, it reads, edits, and creates documents directly for your business, not just in a chat window.
All three are free. All three come with a certification. And they build on each other in order.
About twelve hours total. Start with Claude 101 and work through them in sequence.
