1The online modules are nice. The working modules in the workshop are something one can do on their own and need not be done in person. There was no big insight

3Solid for baselining people across the skill.
4Very helpful for a beginner
5Great practical session
6Good course
7Learnt new things and hearing about others’ experiences with Claude really helps think out of the box.
8Great learning on latest features and capabilities
9Very informative
10Would like more build guidance instead of working off pre built plumbing
11Actually useful contents
12Its is good for entry level with no claude code experience
13Day 1 was introductory. Can be split into a different session.
14Staff was very helpful, I learned a lot
15Eye opening , clarity of thoughts in positioning Claude to customers
16New knowldgr
17Learned new ways to fully get full power of Claude
18Not as advanced as I would have liked.
19There is an opportunity to make the training facilitate more dialogue and discussion. This one focused a lot on heads down coding that can be pre-work/virtual work.
20The workshop could have been more real world practice. Like actually solving by real world problems.
21The contents, instructors and hands on exercises were greatly managed
22Understanding of python code is required to make this session useful. It's not really for non technical people
23I feel that a lot of the topics were not new and well known topics. If someone was new this would be good to learn the concept but someone who knows the concepts it was very much repetitive. Also think there could be more talk and discussion then sitting and doing individual hands on labs.
24Content I have not seen elsewhere by Anthropic in training
25Very engaging and practical experience
26I think this felt more of an introduction to how to use Claude and while hit on technical topics the way it was delivered felt more like copy and paste or execute this juniper notebook vs explaining the concepts and why we would do certain things.
27It will be useful to learn new things
28Great hands-on exercises
29Good
30I work primarily with engineers and think this would be a good course for them to get deeper into Claude. I do think that there were a few too many exercises and would rather have digested a bit more in between. I think it would be helpful to discuss the solutions more in depth
31Lots of hands on session which helped to understand and playground with Claude code.
32Great session
33Training is not hands on or intuitive for non-tech folks. There have to be atleast one hands on to ensure the business and sales folks can harness the power of agentification in code form in Claude code or vscode
34Enjoyed the class
35Great content and learning opportunity
36Good experience and able interaction with more people and share the knowledge
37It was well taught, attentive to details and folks were always present to support individuals. I think everyone could benefit from this program regardless of their AI literacy.
38While informative, I think it was somewhat narrowly focused on the engineering aspect. Many of us are not engineers, and might benefit from less technical building and more around what is possible. Clients are not asking us about how to troubleshoot their agents, but rather how can they use AI to help to begin with.
39In comparison with Microsoft AI-300 , the content of the course being taught is level above. While Microsoft AI-300 teaches me evaluations, tracing at each pipelines and the differential factors , Claude touches on evaluations but it doesn’t touch on what causes latency and throughput and each pipeline tasks.
40hands on is valuable
41Engaging content and the hands on practicals
42It gives a holistic view kf clause enterprises and also build along using it which helps in curating real use cases
43Content was great.
Presenters were knowledgeable and very helpful.
Exercises focused on the content they just covered with time to experiment .
Course length a d breaks were well times
Thanks
44I learned a lot of things via this training, but Japanese people may struggle to learn because of English skill.
45We could deeply learn about agent development, especially in context engineering and evaluations
46Good hands on session - but didn't cover the aspects of using AI and claude in specific in solving real world problems
47Session should have been focused more on particular role instead of focusing multiple roles, I feel not completely focus on presentation to client , not completely developer oriented
48The early demos were very complex and hard to follow when jumping in. Additionally, they required additional set up steps. Several demos and workshops labs didn’t work immediately and required Claude to troubleshoot and fix. This took the focus away from the specific skills being taught in each lab
49Content is good; Anthropic staff helpful
50I found the training helpful for a few takeaways / tips but not much more broadly. I understand the challenge in crafting the exercises but I thought they were too advanced for someone who comes in knowing nothing but too basic for someone who comes in having foundational knowledge.
I found the Jupyter notebooks confusing to use, and the instructors weren't clear until speaking to them 1:1 that the preferred method was to run it directly in Claude Code or VS Code. Additionally, none of the instructions were written for the desktop Claude Code. The first exercise that had instructions in a site directly (https://claude-code-workshop.netlify.app/) was by far the best, and I would have loved if the other exercises were the same.
The 02 and 03 exercises on Day 2 in particular, were not very helpful. For 02 especially, there was nothing actually to DO because it ran on its own and I didn't understand what the takeaway was supposed to be. Our table finished in just a few minutes and chatted instead because there was nothing else to do for that exercise.
In general across the exercises, I didn't understand the right balance of what to ask Claude to do directly, versus what we should do ourselves. I liked that in the 04 exercise on Day 1 they told us more explicitly when to digest ourselves vs. when to use Claude. Because Claude could do the exercises itself, I felt like I didn't necessarily grasp the takeaways. I think the Agent Build at the end of Day 2 was one of the better exercises, but for all of them, there was a lot already built / a lot of code already written, which personally made it more confusing. Since I have less coding experience, I didn't know what to read / how to understand a good amount of what was in the Jupyter notebooks. There were parts to fill in that seemed to require Python knowledge or understanding of the data structure. While I was able to move forward by talking to Claude, it felt like it defeated the purpose of the exercise.
I also really liked the evals conversation and exercise, and it was where I felt like I learned the most. However, it wasn't made clear how/where to implement the eval in a real world use case. Do you build a site? When does the eval check get run? It would have been helpful to connect back to use cases and when to literally put an eval into practice and how.
Finally, this is super small and I'm sure unintentional, but I was doing an initial group share with a group of other women and one of the facilitators came to chat with us. She spoke to us with the assumption that we didn't know anything about Github/development, despite us not having shared that. It felt like because we were a group of women, it was assumed that we were on the lower end of experience, when in fact that was not true. Again, she shared helpful tips (which may have been shared with other groups as well), it just struck me as odd. It was also surprising to me, and the other participants I spoke to about this, that none of the facilitators worked at Anthropic. It felt like it was billed as an Anthropic-run training and the facilitators were purposefully vague about it. I think it would have been better if there was more transparency there! The facilitators were still helpful and knowledgeable, and Claude directly was able to do almost all troubleshooting anyways.
51There were a great number of flaws in the notebooks, little instruction, and we did not receive accurate setup instructions prior to being onsite. The main response from facilitators was “ask Claude”. I’m not certain in that case the purpose of being onsite.
I would suggest more robust setup instructions including all the dependencies we need. I would also recommend reviewing all trainings and fixing the major issues. Some had issues in the very first cell because someone forgot to install the necessary dependencies before importing a module.
There was also far too many variables involved. If we used Claude through VS Code or CodeSpaces as suggested, we’d run into rate limit issues from Git. Using the native Claude Code application didn’t have the same views of directories.
We were supposed to set up Claude Cowork but never did anything with it.
There is apparently a certification involved with this and we got no information about it at any point across the past two days.
