Why This Course?
AI agents are no longer science fiction — they are the next leap in how professionals work. But most people are stuck at the chatbot stage: asking questions and copying answers. A real AI agent does not just answer — it acts. It reads your email, checks your calendar, organises your files, and chains multiple steps together to complete tasks on your behalf.
This course teaches you to build, configure, and extend your own personal AI agent using Claude Code and Cowork — from first setup to daily automation. No coding experience required.
Who Is This Course For?
- Managers who want to automate email, meetings, and reporting
- Consultants who want to multiply their output without hiring
- Entrepreneurs who need AI as their "first employee"
- HR and compliance professionals preparing for EU AI Act requirements
- Anyone who spends too much time on repetitive tasks
- Professionals curious about AI agents but unsure where to start
- Teams who want to share AI skills across the organisation
