Courses

Pick your seat.
Each one is written for one kind of work.

How to use a course

Twenty minutes, your own material.
Every lesson is built to be used the same day.

  • Pick the seat that matches your job, not the one that sounds most advanced. Each course assumes one kind of week.
  • One lesson a day, in order. Lesson 2 of every course sets up a context block that the later lessons assume you have.
  • Keep one document open while you read. Paste every prompt you run into it. By lesson 6 that document is your personal toolkit.
  • Do the exercise before the next lesson. Each one takes 10 to 20 minutes on your own material and ends with a line that tells you when you are done.
  • Come back for the toolkit. Every prompt in its final form, the templates, a one-screen reference, and a worked example, kept for as long as you are a member.
