Step 1 of 2

What you leave with

You leave with tools you built yourself.

By the end, whether you join live or virtual, you will have:

  • A working tool for your own job. One that writes your quotes, builds your reports, or cleans your donor list.

  • Claude Code on your own computer, set up and tuned to the way you already work.

  • Your AI Maturity Scorecard, so you can see what your team already does well with AI, and what to build next.

  • A 30-day implementation roadmap, the plan for getting what you built into daily use.

  • A coach who built your tool with you. The instructors build AI for clients all week. In class, they coach you through yours, error messages included.

  • The skill to build the next one without us. The tool you take home is the receipt. The skill is the product.

Your work is the curriculum.

You bring the task that eats your week: the quotes, the campaign report, the grant paperwork, the intake queue. In class, that task becomes the thing you build.

  • Marketing a tool that builds campaign reports from your templates
  • Consulting a tool that drafts proposals with your frameworks
  • Small business a tool that writes quotes for your services
  • Nonprofit a tool that assembles grant reports
  • Government a tool that routes intake to the right desk
  • Education a grading tool that uses your rubric

Same class, different tool, because the tool comes from your job. And that's why it sticks: a demo app is forgotten by Friday. The tool that saves you an hour every Monday gets opened every Monday.

AI Facilitators

Taught by people who build this for clients.

The rest of the week, these four build AI for companies. In class, they coach you while you build your own. Every name here is one you can look up.

Rob Richardson, Claude Code Courses AI facilitator

Rob Richardson

Shows you what to hand to AI and what to keep human

Rob is the founder and CEO of Disruption Now, an electrical engineer turned attorney. When you ask whether a tool is safe to use at work, he can answer both halves: how it works, and where the legal lines sit. He also founded MidwestCon, and he has spent years interviewing the people who build AI.

Your way in if you need to trust the tool before you'll touch it.

Kaila Love, Claude Code Courses AI facilitator

Kaila Love

The artist who builds her own software, and shows you how

Kaila is an artist who became an AI specialist, and teaching people like her is now her whole business. She already teaches Claude Code, and she has run 20+ hackathons in 5 countries, where people of every age, kids to grandparents, build something that works in a weekend.

Your way in if the admin is eating the time that should go to your craft.

Dr. Kelly Cohen, Claude Code Courses AI facilitator

Dr. Kelly Cohen

Teaches you to see why the AI did what it did

Kelly spent 22 years as an engineer working on early drones, then nearly two decades as a University of Cincinnati professor building AI that can explain its own decisions. His classes are hands-on (his students code from scratch), and his research runs from autonomous flight to AI that reads heart-disease risk from a mammogram.

Your way in if you work in healthcare, government, or finance, and you need to know why the AI said what it said.

John Cavanaugh, Claude Code Courses AI facilitator

John Cavanaugh

Build with AI and keep your data yours

John runs the Plunk Foundation, a Cincinnati nonprofit whose tools ask permission before they share a family's information, built for the families most service systems leave behind. He joined Disruption Now in 2026, and he teaches nonprofit teams and everyday people to protect their data in small, safe moves: connect what you already use, and show only what the right person needs.

Your way in if your work touches data that has to stay private.

Where you are

You already pay for AI.

The subscriptions renew every month. Your team has ChatGPT. And the way you work hasn't changed: the quotes, the reports, the intake, the follow-ups still get done by hand.

Meanwhile, somebody in your field already builds their own tools, with an AI coding agent and a coach at their shoulder. What separates you from them is a few guided sessions.

Who it's for

Built for the people the tech industry overlooks.

If one of these sounds like your week, this was built for you.

01

Small-business owners

Every quote, invoice chase, and follow-up still runs through you. The AI subscriptions you tried didn't change that; they added another monthly charge.

You build: A tool that writes your quotes and gives you your evenings back.

02

Marketers & agencies

Clients expect AI-built work at AI speed, and question every retainer. Meanwhile the reporting deck still eats your Friday afternoon.

You build: A tool that builds campaign reports from your own templates.

03

Consultants

Clients keep asking what you do with AI, and a slide about it convinces nobody anymore. They want to see something you built.

You build: A tool that drafts proposals with your frameworks. A better answer than any slide.

04

Nonprofit & public-sector teams

The grant reports and intake queues keep growing while headcount doesn't. Every fix waits on procurement, IT, or a developer there's no budget for.

You build: Tools you built yourselves that route intake and draft the grant reports.

05

Educators

AI landed in your classroom before anyone trained you on it, and every vendor fix is another platform that doesn't fit how you teach.

You build: A grading tool that uses your rubric and hands back your planning day.

06

Creators

The admin eats the evenings that should go to the craft, while clients and bosses push AI at you from every side.

You build: A back office you built that runs itself. The art stays 100% yours.

For teams

We already train teams.

Claude Code Courses comes out of Disruption Now's training practice — the same people organizations bring in when a whole staff needs to put AI to work.

In March 2026, Princeton City Schools brought us in to train their educators — middle school and high school teachers in the same room, hands-on. Same format as these courses: everyone builds for their own job, coached on the spot.

  • School districts
  • City governments
  • Nonprofits + community orgs
  • Healthcare teams
  • Small businesses

It could be personalized toward any subject matter we needed. It will save me massive amounts of time, and it's what the kids are using. It's been the best PD training I've had in my career.
Tracy Whitaker Tracy Whitaker — educator, Princeton City Schools
All teachers need to be in a session like this — it's what students use. It's not cheating; we have the parameters set up. It gives them a voice in a different way.

Questions

Common questions.

I'm not technical. Will I keep up?

Yes. The classes exist for people without an engineering background. Sessions are live and guided: you give Claude Code instructions in plain English, and a coach who builds AI for clients works through each step with you. If you can write a clear email, you can do this.

Isn't Claude Code a developer tool?

It started as one, and developers still use it every day. Non-developers use it to build the tools around their work: intake forms, report tools, small automations. You describe what you want, it writes the code, and your coach makes sure what you build fits the way you actually work.

I've bought courses I never finished. How is this different?

This is live and scheduled, with a small group and an instructor who expects you to show up. You build during the session, on work from your own job. The structure does the finishing that willpower usually has to.

What does it cost, and when does it start?

Neither is announced yet. Dates and pricing go to the waitlist first. The budget question on the form points you to the right first step today: the course, or MidwestCon, Disruption Now's live conference.

What does joining the waitlist commit me to?

Nothing. No payment and no obligation. You get a confirmation email, then updates when dates, pricing, and enrollment open. Your answers also help decide which industries and class topics run first.
