The problem

Everybody is selling AI.
Nobody is teaching it.

  • Vendors teach you their product. Nobody teaches you the game.
  • Your data goes somewhere every time you type. Do you know where?
  • The people who most need this are the last to be taught it.

Inside

The curriculum.

  1. 01
    Claude Foundations: Beyond the Chat Box
    What an AI model actually is, how Claude differs from a search engine or a chatbot, and how to get useful work done in the Claude web app.
  2. 02
    Claude Code and the CLI
    Claude as an agent in your terminal: install it, point it at a project, let it plan and execute multi-step work — and keep it on a leash.
  3. 03
    Serving Claude on Azure: Microsoft Foundry & Azure OpenAI
    How Microsoft serves frontier models — its own OpenAI deployments and Anthropic's Claude in Foundry — and what 'hosted on Azure' actually means.
  4. 04
    Serving Claude on Google Cloud: Vertex AI & Model Garden
    Enabling Anthropic models in Model Garden, calling them through Vertex AI, choosing regions, and switching off data caching for zero retention.
  5. 05
    Anthropic's Models: Families, Tiers, and Where They Run
    The Claude model families, how to pick a tier, and why a model is available in one region and one cloud but not another.
  6. 06
    AI, Data & Privacy: Retention vs Zero Data Retention
    What happens to what you type. Training vs retention vs logging, the defaults on each platform, and how to get a real zero-data-retention posture.

Questions people ask.

Is it really free?

Yes. Discernment Inc. is a Florida nonprofit. There is no paid tier. Every lesson is free for every member.

Why do I need to register?

So we can save your progress, issue your certificates, and keep the material behind a door we control rather than scraped across the internet.

What do you do with my information?

Sign-in is handled by Microsoft Entra. We keep your name, email, and lesson progress. No trackers. Nothing sold. Ever.

Do I need to be technical?

No. The first track assumes nothing. The later tracks take you as far as deploying models on Azure and Google Cloud.
