AI-Assisted Software Engineering with Claude Code Training Course

A two-day course tailored for developers who already utilise AI coding tools such as Cursor, Claude Code or Copilot. It covers delegating complete tasks to agents, building the personalisation stack (Rules, AGENTS.md, Skills, MCP, Agents), connecting and building MCP servers, running agents in parallel, and a structured agentic workflow. The material is tool-agnostic. It follows the Foundations course.

This two-day introductory course explores AI-assisted software development for beginners, including those with minimal or no coding experience. It explains the underlying mechanics of these tools, teaches how to guide them effectively through prompting, and demonstrates practical applications in common scenarios: creating small projects from the ground up, integrating with existing codebases, and evaluating outcomes. The content is tool-agnostic, making it applicable to platforms like Cursor, Claude Code, and Copilot. This course serves as a prerequisite for the advanced Agentic AI Development: Advanced Workflows module.

AI agents operating within the browser are capable of reading web pages, comparing vendors, and completing forms on behalf of the user. This one-day course provides a comprehensive overview of ChatGPT Agent and Atlas, Claude in Chrome, and Perplexity Comet. It explores suitable use cases and associated risks, including the threat of hidden instructions embedded in web pages. Participants will delegate two tasks, validate the outcomes, and establish guidelines for their teams.

Upon completing this training, participants will be equipped to:

• Comprehend the mechanics of how browser agents read pages, navigate, and populate forms
• Evaluate and compare ChatGPT Agent and Atlas, Claude in Chrome, and Perplexity Comet
• Identify appropriate tasks such as research, comparisons, and form management
• Draft assignments that clearly define objectives, constraints, and approval milestones
• Identify and mitigate risks, such as hidden instructions on web pages
• Establish protocols for team usage

Course Format

• Duration: 1 day (7 hours)
• Interactive sessions led by a trainer, incorporating discussions and hands-on exercises tailored to participants' specific use cases
• Day 1 Outcome: Each participant will have delegated two tasks to a browser agent, verified the results, and established team usage rules.
