Anthropic has launched Anthropic Academy, a new platform offering free online courses focused on mastering its Claude AI models.

The Story
These courses, available via Skilljar and Coursera, provide official certification without requiring a paid Claude subscription.
Why It Matters
For European SMBs, this isn't just free training; it's a strategic opportunity to upskill your team in a leading AI tool without significant cost or complexity. It means your staff can immediately gain practical, certified AI literacy, improving productivity and demystifying AI integration into daily operations.
What To Do About It
I’ve seen the immediate return from practical application. I recommend your team members dedicate a few hours weekly to these courses. Start with "Claude 101" for a quick win on everyday tasks, then move to "AI Fluency Framework & Foundations" for safe collaboration. For those building integrations or automating, the "Developer Deep-Dives" offer advanced skills. The value isn't just the certificate; it's the immediate, tangible efficiency gains in your operations. Find all courses at anthropic.skilljar.com.
