Claude Cowork for Knowledge Workers: Your AI Coworker, Not Just a Chatbot
Dr. Alvaro Cintas
Helping you master AI daily
Get your work done for you with Claude Cowork
A half-day intensive for knowledge workers ready to stop chatting with AI and start having it do real work - autonomously, across your actual tools and files.
You're already using AI. But if you're still copy-pasting outputs, rewriting prompts, and doing the follow-through yourself, you're using it like a search engine with better grammar.
Claude Cowork launched in January 2026 and most professionals still don't know how to use it optimally. It's the first agentic tool built for non-engineers that can actually run multi-step tasks across your real tools: Gmail, Google Drive, Slack, and more, without a terminal, without code, and without you babysitting it. The professionals who figure this out in the next six months will have a compounding productivity advantage that's very hard to close later.
In this half-day workshop, I walk you through how Cowork works, how to connect your tools, and how to build a personal Skill from scratch - tailored to your role, your context, and your actual workflow.
You'll leave with a working setup, a Skill you built yourself, and a curated resource stack you can reference long after the session.
This is for anyone looking to learn how to use Claude Cowork!
