About this course

Claude Code has overtaken GitHub Copilot as the most-used AI coding tool in 2026, and McKinsey's February 2026 study (n=4,500 devs) shows AI coding tools cut routine-coding time by 46%, with senior devs reporting an 81% productivity boost.

This half-day workshop picks up where the introductory Claude Code course leaves off. Participants learn to harness Claude Code's agentic capabilities for complex, multi-step engineering workflows — building custom MCP servers (the protocol now has 97M monthly SDK downloads and 10,000+ servers), orchestrating multi-file refactors, creating reusable slash commands and hooks, and integrating Claude Code into CI/CD pipelines.

What you will need

Completion of the introductory Claude Code workshop or equivalent hands-on experience. Participants need an active Claude account and comfort with terminal-based workflows.
