ChatGPT and Claude Prompting: Full 4-Hour Course
Prompt engineering for ChatGPT and Claude — four hours of actually applying the techniques inside both tools, not just learning what they're called. Most people write prompts the way they'd type a search query, get a mediocre answer, rewrite it, and repeat until something usable appears. This course replaces that loop with structure: the five elements of an effective prompt, iterating deliberately instead of guessing, then the advanced techniques — zero-shot, few-shot, role prompting, chain of thought, self-prompting with clarifying questions, and prompt chaining for tasks too big for one message. It also covers the tool-specific parts that make a real difference: Claude's privacy and personalisation settings, prefilled structured outputs, Projects for ongoing context, and working with images, PDFs and files. You finish with your own prompt library rather than a set of notes.

No prior experience needed and no coding background. Free accounts on both ChatGPT and Claude cover most of the course, though some features shown sit on paid tiers.
⚠️ Interfaces and settings change often on both tools, and some features shown may have moved or been renamed since recording. The prompting techniques themselves don't change — a well-structured prompt works the same regardless of which menu the setting lives in.
