lessons, yours to run
Easy to pick up, built to get you the next job
No coding background needed, and you write code with Claude as you go.
Every section below turns into something a hiring manager recognises, not just notes.
Build a context architecture that makes Claude think like a category manager
- Set up stacked CLAUDE.md files so Claude loads the right supplier, spend, or carrier context automatically depending on which category you are working in
- Write the three-section category file structure that any procurement-savvy hiring manager will recognise as disciplined, repeatable AI governance
- No coding needed: every step is copy, paste, and follow along, starting from the very first lesson
Query real procurement data without writing a single formula
- Run supplier spend summaries, contract-end alerts, and at-risk supplier flags against actual CSV files covering direct materials, logistics, and indirect spend
- Aggregate 5,000 shipment records by transport mode and surface the result in seconds, the kind of analysis a hiring manager calls 'turning data into decisions'
- Spot approval-path policy violations across 3,000 invoices without touching a spreadsheet
Craft commands and skills that Claude executes consistently, every time
- Build reusable skill files so Claude follows your procurement writing rules, escalation logic, and category-specific instructions without being prompted twice
- Write commands that behave predictably across direct materials, logistics, and indirect categories, a capability employers describe as 'process-ready AI integration'
- Learn the Write, Save, Start rule that eliminates the most common beginner mistakes, no prior technical experience assumed
Walk away with a portfolio of working artifacts, not slide decks
- Finish the course with real, runnable files you built yourself, ready to demo in an interview or drop straight into your current role
- Every artifact is grounded in recognisable procurement scenarios: supplier risk, carrier performance, indirect spend compliance
- Because you built it hands-on from lesson one, you can explain it, adapt it, and defend it when a hiring manager asks how it works
Finish this course and you can do all of this, no prior background required:
- You'll be able to configure Claude Code with stacked context files so it loads the right category knowledge automatically, the kind of structured AI setup a hiring manager calls production-ready
- You'll be able to query a supplier list, flag at-risk contracts by expiry date, and produce a sourcing decision brief without touching a spreadsheet or writing a formula
- You'll be able to aggregate shipment spend by carrier and by transport mode across thousands of rows, turning raw logistics data into the performance summary an operations director actually wants
- You'll be able to run an invoice approval-path audit across an indirect spend ledger and identify policy violations, a compliance check that normally takes a team hours to do manually
- You'll be able to build and maintain reusable skill files that make Claude follow your procurement writing rules and escalation logic consistently, demonstrating the kind of repeatable AI governance e
- You'll be able to show a hiring manager or line manager a working demo you built yourself, not a certificate, explaining exactly how it works and how it could be adapted for their data

Kept current with the stack
Claude Code, skills, and MCP move fast. Your licence includes every system update for as long as you're subscribed. Your system gets better, not obsolete.
You know Claude Code is changing what procurement teams can do, but every guide assumes you already know how to code. You search for a practical starting point, find nothing built for buyers and category managers, and end up watching generic tutorials that have nothing to do with POs, supplier risk, or three-way match. Meanwhile, job postings are already asking for AI tool proficiency, and the colleagues who figured this out first are the ones getting the interesting projects and the promotion conversations. Doing nothing is not a neutral position.
What you'll be able to do, module by module
Every module leaves you able to build and run something real. Here is the syllabus, in the order you work through it.

Most candidates say they are comfortable with AI tools. You will be able to open your laptop and show a working procurement context system, live data queries, and a supplier risk output you built from scratch. That is the difference between a CV claim and a capability a hiring manager can verify on the spot.
From subscribing to running your first artifact
Subscribe and get instant access
Your account opens the full course, all data files, and the practice folders the moment you subscribe. No software to install beyond Claude Code itself, and the first lesson tells you exactly how to get that set up.
Open lesson one and follow along at your own pace
Each lesson has a short scene-setting video, then a step-by-step written exercise you run in your own terminal. No coding background assumed. If a step goes wrong, the lesson tells you the three most likely causes and exactly how to fix each one.
Run your first real procurement query and see it work
By the end of the Core Modules you will have queried real supplier and shipment data, surfaced at-risk contracts, and caught invoice approval violations, all without writing a formula. That is your first working demo, built by you, ready to show.
Surfacing a supplier risk before the contract expires
Load the right context automatically
You start Claude from inside the direct-materials folder. Because you set up the stacked CLAUDE.md system, Claude loads both the global procurement rules and the direct-materials category file simultaneously. It already knows you have 50 active suppliers, two CSV files, and that SUP004 Apex Electronics is flagged at-risk with a contract ending 2026-05-31. You typed nothing to tell it any of that.
Ask a plain-English contract question
You type: 'Which suppliers have contracts ending in the next twelve months and what is our annual spend with each?' Claude reads suppliers.csv for contract dates, cross-references orders.csv to sum spend by supplier, and returns a ranked list in seconds. No pivot table, no VLOOKUP, no waiting for the data team.
Act on the at-risk flag immediately
Apex Electronics appears at the top because it is already flagged at-risk in the category file rules. Claude surfaces the contract end date, the annual spend figure, and a note that a sourcing decision is needed before May 2026. You now have everything you need to brief your category lead or open an RFx, without digging through a shared drive.
Save the output as a working document
You ask Claude to format the findings as a supplier risk briefing note following your global writing rules. It does so in one step, using the structure and tone you defined in your CLAUDE.md files. The document is ready to share, and you built the entire workflow yourself.
The toolkit you'll build and run in this program
You leave with working assets, not notes.
Real things you can demo in an interview.
A global CLAUDE.md briefing file configured for a procurement environment, ready to load every time you start Claude
Three category-level context files covering direct materials, logistics, and indirect spend, each following the proven three-section structure
Working skill and command files that enforce your procurement writing rules and query logic without re-prompting
A set of tested prompts that query real CSV data, covering supplier spend, contract risk, carrier performance, and invoice compliance
A fully documented practice project folder you can adapt for your own organisation's data and demo in an interview
You'll get the most from this if
Procurement and supply-chain professionals who want to use Claude Code for real category and supplier work but have no coding background and need a practical, no-jargon starting point
Buyers and category managers who are tired of slow manual analysis and want to show their next employer they can work with AI tools, not just talk about them
Students and early-career professionals in procurement or supply chain who want a portfolio of working skills rather than another theory-heavy qualification
Anyone already using spreadsheets and email to manage supplier data who suspects there is a faster, more defensible way and wants to prove it with something they built themselves
Yearly plan: 14-day keep-the-system guarantee
14-day refund on the yearly plan. Finish the first two modules, and if you haven't run your first live pipeline, take a full refund.
Straight answers before you subscribe
Do I need any coding or technical background to do this course?
None at all. The course is designed from the ground up for procurement and supply-chain professionals who have never written a line of code. Every exercise is step-by-step, every command is explained before you run it, and every common mistake has a plain-English fix listed right there in the lesson. If you can copy, paste, and follow instructions, you can complete this course.
Will this work with my current setup?
The course uses Claude Code and CSV practice files that are provided for you in the Course Materials module. The lessons are run in a terminal, which is available on Mac, Windows, and Linux. The first lesson walks you through confirming your setup is ready before you do anything else, so there are no surprises mid-course.
What if I get stuck or fall behind?
The course includes daily live sessions where you can ask questions and get unstuck in real time, plus mentor review of your work. You also learn at your own pace because the lessons are available on demand, so there is no pressure to keep up with a fixed cohort schedule.
How does the refund policy work?
There is a 14-day refund window. If you work through the course and decide it is not right for you, you can request a full refund within 14 days of purchase. We also offer a free preview lesson so you can see exactly how the course is structured before you commit.
How are updates handled, and can I use what I build commercially?
The course is updated when the curriculum changes, and enrolled students get access to those updates as part of their subscription. The artifacts you build during the course, your CLAUDE.md files, skill files, and command files, are yours to use in your own work, including in a professional or commercial setting.
