Real people, real recordings
What it's like to learn this from Charles.
Claude Academy is a new program, so these are not graduates. They are operators who have worked with Charles through Charlie OS and the CC Strategic community, talking about the teaching, not the course.
“I have been getting more done in the last two weeks than I have in the last two months. I've launched an entire platform and it walked me through step by step.”
Tucker Bern
Family office investor
“Before joining Charles's premium group all of my previous clients were n8n builds. Since joining the group I've signed three clients for custom projects using Claude Code, using Charles's framework.”
Fraser Kemp
Founder, Leetook.co
“It's very much like having a personal assistant that has all of the context of your business. If you use Claude Code and have a consulting or service-based business, this is a no-brainer.”
Samer S
AI consulting agency owner
“I joined a bunch of communities and this is the one that stuck. As a new person to this and ADHD, I need a systems thinker who can explain things clearly and systematically. He does that.”
Meg Elder
Community member
“My biggest problem was that I had a lot of tools, a lot of ideas, a lot of prompts, but no clean operating structure. It gave me a clear system to organize all my AI workflow.”
Bruno Nogueira
AI content and business systems
“A lot of stuff that you find on YouTube you won't find here, because it goes really in depth. I wanted a social media scraper and he built it out for me. I still use it to this day.”
Ansari
Community member since day one
“I struggled with knowing how to price things, how to pitch, how to follow up. Charlie helped me with all of those things. He was also very helpful in refining my knowledge of Claude Code.”
Samer S
AI consulting agency owner
“He makes sure you understand everything before moving on. Everything's clearly laid out so you can streamline your knowledge path and go from one course to another.”

Programs
Pick the depth you actually need.
Four ways in. They share a curriculum spine, so nothing you learn in one is wasted if you move to another.
Certified Claude Operator
$7492 live days + assessment
The flagship. Train live, then prove it.
Two live days across the full Claude stack, followed by a practical assessment you complete on your own work. Pass it and you hold a credential that shows what you can actually build, not what you sat through.
DetailsThe Claude Course
$4492 live days
Same two days. No assessment, no credential.
If you want the training but have no use for the certificate, take the same live cohort without the assessment track. You can upgrade to the certification later at the difference in price.
Details1:1 Coaching
From $35060 min to half day
Your repo, your workflow, one screen.
Bring the thing that is stuck. We build it together, live. Most people book this after a cohort, when they hit the specific wall their own codebase throws at them.
DetailsCompany Training
CustomHalf day to multi-week
Built for your stack, delivered privately.
A discovery call, a curriculum written against your actual repos and workflows, private delivery to your team, and monthly advisory after so it sticks past week one.
DetailsOutcomes
What you leave with.
Not notes. Working things, running against your own accounts and your own code.
A Claude setup that matches how you actually work
Project instructions, memory, connectors, and a daily brief wired to your real accounts. Not a sandbox you abandon on Monday.
Something shipped, in the room
You leave day two with working software you built during the session, on your own repo, not a tutorial clone.
A credential tied to work, not attendance
The assessment asks you to build. Passing means you demonstrated the skill, which is the only kind of certificate worth showing anyone.
Who teaches it
Taught by someone who ships with Claude every day.

Charles J Dove
Founder, C&C Strategic Consulting
Twelve years building businesses, the last stretch of it building AI systems that run without anyone watching them. The material here comes out of client work and shipped software, not out of a slide deck written to fill two days.
That matters for one reason. When something breaks live in the session, and it will, you watch it get debugged in real time. That is the part you cannot get from documentation.
Dates
Live cohorts, real seats.
Every cohort is capped at 20 people. No countdown timers here, just the actual count.

Questions
The things people ask before they book.
No, and that is not a hedge. Day one is entirely about wiring Claude into how you already work, which requires no programming. Day two goes further into building, and roughly half of every cohort has never written production code. You will still ship something.
It is assessed on work, not attendance. You submit a build against a brief, applied to your own context, and it gets reviewed. Certificates that arrive automatically when the Zoom call ends are worth exactly what they cost to issue.
Fully. Two three-hour sessions, one per day, capped at twenty people. You can interrupt, share your screen, and get unstuck in real time. Recordings go out after, but the value is in the room.
Usually yes. Most companies cover this under an existing education or professional development budget. There is a page at /for-managers with the numbers and an email you can forward without editing.
Join the interest list and you will hear about the next cohort before it goes public. Cohorts run monthly, and seats in the current one are usually gone before the date is close.
A Claude account and a terminal. You get a setup checklist a week ahead, and there is a short pre-cohort portal that gets everyone to the same starting line so day one is not spent on installs.
Full refund up to seven days before the cohort starts. After that the seat is held and cannot be resold in time, so it becomes a credit toward a later cohort instead.
Twenty seats. Two days. One credential.
If you already use Claude and suspect you are using ten percent of it, this is the fastest way to close that gap.
