Claude and ChatGPT: master the tool and build your first agent

Who is it for?

Target audience

Employees, executives, freelancers and sole traders who use ChatGPT or Claude.

Prerequisites

Having taken the introduction course, or already using AI regularly (the pre-training questionnaire checks this). A paid ChatGPT or Claude subscription: most of these features are not available in the free plans. A laptop with the tool’s app, installed in advance or together on the day. On a company computer, installation sometimes requires approval from the IT department: plan for this before the training.

What are the objectives?

By the end of the training, each participant will be able to:

• Understand how ChatGPT and Claude work: models, tokens, limits
• Choose the right model and the right feature for each task
• Set up your workspace: instructions, projects, skills
• Connect the tool to your applications, knowing which data it can see
• Schedule a recurring task
• Build your first agent, and stay in control of it

What is the programme?

In one day: all four parts.

1. 01

   How your tool works

   The models, tokens and features of ChatGPT and Claude: what each one can do, and what you use up.

   See details

   • Models: faster or more powerful (for Claude: Haiku, Sonnet, Opus), which one to choose for which task
   • Tokens: how the tool counts your text, and why it “forgets” the beginning of a long conversation
   • The limits of your subscription, and how not to reach them too quickly
   • Each tool’s features: web search, file analysis, document creation
2. 02

   A tool set up for your job

   Instructions, projects and skills: the tool knows how you work.

   See details

   • The plans (free, individual paid, team, enterprise) and the settings that protect your data
   • Instructions: your style, your formats, and rules to limit made-up content (“hallucinations”)
   • A project: one space per case or file, which keeps your documents and instructions, so you no longer have to explain everything again
   • A skill: a method written once, which the tool then applies on its own
3. 03

   Connectors and scheduled tasks

   A connector lets ChatGPT or Claude read your calendar, your emails or your files. A scheduled task makes it work on its own, for example every Monday morning.

   See details

   • What a connector can see, and the permissions you grant
   • What is better left unconnected, and why
   • Example: a summary of your monitoring, ready every Monday
   • Review before acting: nothing is sent or published automatically
4. 04

   Your first agent

   Understand how an agent works, then build your own, on one of your tasks.

   See details

   • An agent: a goal, tools, and steps it carries out on its own
   • Demonstration: an agent in ChatGPT, an agent in Claude
   • Workshop: everyone builds their agent and tests it on a real task
   • Permissions, and approval before each important action

What do you take away?

• Your configured workspace: instructions, a project, a skill
• Your first agent, built during the training
• My instructions and skills, to adapt
• The course materials as a PDF and a reminder sheet
• A certificate of completion

How does the training work?

• Live demonstrations in ChatGPT and Claude
• Setting up your own workspace during the training
• Workshop: your first agent, on one of your tasks

How is learning assessed?

• Pre-training questionnaire on level and expectations
• Presentation of your setup and your agent at the end
• Knowledge quiz and satisfaction questionnaire
• Follow-up questionnaire three months later, for participants and the company

How do I enrol?

A 20-minute preliminary call, a questionnaire on your needs and the participants’ level, then a quote and a training agreement.

Before the training: a short questionnaire on each person’s level and expectations. I adapt the programme to the answers.

Equipment: one laptop (or a tablet, depending on the course) per participant, supplied by the company or their own. The room: on your premises, with a screen; otherwise, I book an external room and its cost is shown on the quote.

Lead time: Without funding: 1 to 2 weeks after the quote is accepted. With a funding application: at least one month.

Funding: your OPCO (a French training funding body) may cover all or part of the course, but this is not automatic; it depends on its rules. Your company applies before the training.

I work under the Qualiopi certification of my partner Route to Business.

The training can be adapted for people with disabilities. Let me know your needs before enrolling. Disability officer: Fenella Rauscher (contact@fenellarauscher.com).
