Plan projects, write status reports, automate admin, and analyze data with Claude AI. A practical guide for PMs.

What you'll learn:
  • Use Claude to plan projects end to end - charters, work breakdowns, estimates, dependencies, critical path, milestones, and risk registers.
  • Turn messy updates into clear status reports, and tailor the same facts for executives, your team, and clients without losing accuracy.
  • Build a single source of truth with action and decision logs, then maintain the whole thing in seconds each week.
  • Reclaim hours of admin: summarize meetings, draft minutes, write SOPs, triage email, and pull tasks from PDFs and spreadsheets.
  • Set up Claude Projects so every chat starts with your project's full context - brief once, benefit on every task.
  • Analyze budgets, data, and risks, run what-if scenarios, and write decision briefs that commit to a clear recommendation.
  • Use Claude responsibly: verify outputs, protect confidential data, follow company policy, and keep judgment and accountability human.
  • Write prompts that get accurate, usable results the first time, using a simple Context-Role-Format-Constraints framework.
  • Draft calm, factual escalations and bad-news updates that stay solution-focused without apologizing or hiding the problem.
  • Extract decisions, actions, and owners from meeting transcripts in minutes, and keep your logs current with a weekly delta.
  • Spot data-quality problems and hidden errors in spreadsheets before you trust the numbers or share them with stakeholders.
  • Compare options on shared criteria and present a recommendation that names its own strongest objection.
  • Tell when to verify Claude's output and how, scaling your checks to how visible and irreversible the work is.
  • Introduce Claude to your team and PMO without chaos, leading adoption like a change project, one workflow at a time.

This course contains the use of artificial intelligence.

If you manage projects, you already know where your week goes. Status reports. Meeting minutes. The inbox that refills faster than you can empty it. Action items chased across five threads. Decision logs nobody updated. It's the work around the work and it quietly crowds out the parts of the job that actually need you. This course is about getting that time back, and spending it where it counts.

Claude AI for Project Management is a practical, hands-on course that teaches you to put Claude to work on the real, everyday tasks of running a project. No theory dumps, no prompt-engineering trivia, just the workflows a working project manager uses, demonstrated step by step and built on realistic scenarios you'll recognize from your own projects.

Across eight modules, you'll move from the fundamentals to a full capstone:

  • Foundations & prompting: brief Claude so it gives you accurate, usable work the first time.

  • Planning: charters, work breakdowns, estimates, dependencies, critical path, milestones, and risk registers.

  • Status & communication: one source of truth, transformed into honest updates for executives, your team, and clients.

  • Administrative overhead: meetings, minutes, action and decision logs, SOPs, email, and working with files.

  • Claude Projects: persistent context, so every chat already knows your project.

  • Analysis & decisions: budgets, data, scenarios, trade-offs, and decision briefs that commit.

  • Responsible use: verification, confidentiality, policy, and the judgment that stays human.

  • Capstone: a complete project, end to end, on your own.

You won't just watch. Every technique is applied to detailed, realistic scenarios, a software rollout and an office relocation, so you practice on work that behaves like the real thing: messy data, missing owners, conditional decisions, and the surprises real documents bury in the fine print. You'll build plans, reports, logs, briefs, and templates you can reuse on Monday.

One principle runs through everything: Claude does the producing; you do the judging. You'll learn exactly which work to delegate - the drafting, summarizing, reformatting, and number-crunching - and which to keep, because decisions, relationships, accountability, and conflict stay human. This course isn't about replacing the project manager. It's about freeing you to be a better one.

You'll finish with a guided capstone and a live role-play, defending a vendor recommendation to an AI sponsor under realistic pressure = the human half of the job, practiced safely. You'll also leave with a downloadable toolkit: a library of ready-to-use prompts, templates, a quick-reference card, and worksheets to take straight into your role.

No coding. No jargon left unexplained. Whether you're a seasoned project manager, a PMO lead, or someone running projects without the title, you'll walk away able to reclaim hours every week and make sharper, better-evidenced decisions. Enroll today, and change how you work.
