DC CAP Enterprise AI  ·  Every team

Make AI part of how you work

An eight-week program to make AI part of how every DC CAP team works — governance-first, at your pace, no technical experience required. You bring what you know about our scholars; AI does the drafting.

Questions are welcomed and mistakes are expected, and skepticism is a fine place to start: the course trains your judgment, not your enthusiasm. You know our scholars better than any AI does; that knowledge shapes how DC CAP uses AI responsibly.
What this is

An eight-week program for every team

You'll learn what AI is, how to use Claude (the AI assistant DC CAP uses) on your real work, and how to do it safely under DC CAP's governance. Every week builds the same skill at a bigger scale: deciding what Claude sees. Start with Week 0. Nothing is graded, and nothing is turned in.

Your first week

There's one place to begin. Everything else is light housekeeping you can do around it.

Begin here

Week 0 — Get in, meet the machine

A guided half hour: get into Claude, get one real win on your own work, and see what a large language model actually is. No jargon, nothing to turn in.

8 min

Take the baseline assessment

An eight-minute self-check, any time in your first week — it's the comparison point for how far you've come by Week 8.

Required

Read & sign the Governance Acknowledgment

The one required step. It walks you through the data rules, then you check a box to say you've read them — and that turns on your Claude seat.

Your two-week catch-up

Do Week 0 and Week 1 this week, join your team at the current week, and backfill Weeks 2–4 at your pace. You are not behind; every week stays open, and a small solo capstone still counts.
