Take the Online Course

Something fundamental is shifting.

Mark Cuban says AI will change everything. The former CEO of Google says AI will replace most programmers within a year. This isn't hype. It's a new way of working — and it's available to you right now.

The people who learn to work with AI agents aren't getting replaced. They're getting multiplied.

What You'll Learn

A practical curriculum built around doing real work, not watching tutorials.

1

Claude Code Fundamentals

What Claude Code actually is and why it's fundamentally different from chatbots. How it reads files, makes plans, and executes — autonomously.

2

Thread-Based Engineering

The framework for working with AI agents: base threads, parallel threads, chained workflows. Learn when to step in and when to let the agent run.

3

Document Analysis & Research

Feed Claude legal filings, contracts, reports — get structured breakdowns in minutes instead of hours. Real research with real citations.

4

Building & Deploying Projects

Go from idea to live website in one session. Claude Code writes, builds, and deploys — you direct. No coding knowledge needed.

5

CLAUDE.md & Project Memory

Onboard your AI agent once, and it remembers your rules, tone, and project structure forever. The secret to consistent, high-quality output.

6

Advanced: Sub-agents & MCPs

Run multiple agents in parallel. Connect Claude to the web, databases, and external services. Build an entire AI team that works while you think.


Who This Is For

Three very different backgrounds. One class that works for all of them.

Non-Technical Professionals

Never written a line of code? Perfect. This class was built by someone who started the same way. You'll learn to direct AI agents using plain English to do real work.

Marketing & Business Teams

Competitive analysis, content generation, contract review, data extraction — done by an AI agent that works at machine speed. Your team becomes a department.

Experienced Developers

Twenty years of engineering context makes Claude Code exponentially more powerful. What non-coders describe in plain English, you can direct with precision. This is a force multiplier.

Hundreds of hours in Claude Code

Meet Madison

Madison Shockley III started his career in front of the camera — acting and producing, including starring on Issa Rae's breakout YouTube series Awkward Black Girl. He went on to found the Cannabis Equity Policy Council, a nonprofit addressing equity gaps in the cannabis industry, and built Cadre, a brand advocating for equitable opportunities that launched its first dispensary to a crowd of 500 and a commendation from the City of Los Angeles.

Then he discovered Claude Code.

With zero coding background, Madison spent hundreds of hours learning to work with AI agents. He used Claude Code to analyze legal filings, research statutes, draft briefs, and build and deploy websites — all for an active legal matter. What used to take days started taking minutes.

Now he teaches what he learned. Not theory. Not tutorials. Real work, done live, in front of his students every Tuesday. Madison's greatest strength has always been creating experiences that leave a deep first impression — and translating complex ideas into something anyone can use.

"I'm not a developer. I'm a practitioner who figured out how to use this tool for real work. If I can do it, you can do it."

The rest of the world is still arguing about AI.
Come build with it.

10:30 every Tuesday. No experience needed. Just show up ready to work.
