Claude Academy

Anthropic's free course catalog — Claude, Claude Code, MCP, agent skills, and the API. Sign in with a Claude account for progress and completion badges. Not the paid Pearson exam.

by Anthropic

Claude Academy is Anthropic's free school at academy.claude.com. Browse without an account. A personal Claude account saves progress and issues completion badges — those badges are quizzes on the site, not the paid Pearson/Credly exam.

Four tracks. Start: Claude 101 (2.5h) or Claude Code 101 (1.5h) if you already live in a terminal — Explore → Plan → Code → Commit, CLAUDE.md, MCP, hooks. Products: Claude Code in Action, MCP intro + advanced, subagents, agent skills (SKILL.md), AI-native SDLC, Enterprise rollout. Fluency: Framework & Foundations (4h) plus role tracks. API: Building with the Claude API is 67 lessons / ~9h; Bedrock and Vertex if that's the host. I keep the catalog for the official path when a blog post is already stale.
