Move beyond writing prompts to engineering them. Build evals and rubrics to measure prompt quality objectively, use AI to write and refine your prompts, get reliable structured outputs, and run optimization loops that cut variance, cost, and latency.

SubscribeThis free Advanced Prompt Engineering course is for people who already know the basics of prompting and are tired of improving prompts by guesswork. Instead of adding more tricks, it teaches the discipline that makes prompts reliable: measuring quality objectively, then optimizing against that measurement. If you have ever shipped a prompt that worked on one example and broke on the next ten, this is the course that fixes the habit.
Across ten short lessons you will learn to build an evaluation set of realistic test cases, write rubrics that produce reproducible scores, and automate grading with a controlled LLM-as-judge while avoiding its well-known biases. You will use meta-prompting to let AI draft and refine your prompts, run tight refinement loops that improve a prompt from its own failures, and get dependable structured outputs with schema enforcement, validation, and graceful recovery when the model slips. The final module covers optimization at scale: A/B comparing prompts, reducing run-to-run variance, and engineering the tradeoff between quality, cost, and latency.
Everything is no-code and broadly applicable, not a developer career track, so the techniques work whether you apply AI to analysis, writing, operations, or research. The course is 100% free and includes a free certificate of completion you can add to your resume or LinkedIn profile.

It is for people who already know the basics of prompting and want to make their prompts reliable, not just clever. It is intermediate level and no-code, so it suits analysts, writers, operators, researchers, and anyone applying AI to real work.
No. Every technique, including building evals, using LLM-as-judge, and getting structured outputs, is taught so you can apply it in a chat window, a spreadsheet, or a no-code tool. The principles matter more than the tooling.
The beginner course teaches how to write a good prompt. This course teaches how to engineer one: measure its quality with evals and rubrics, optimize it with refinement loops and A/B comparison, and make its outputs reliable enough to build on.
You will be able to measure whether a prompt change actually helped, automate evaluation, use AI to improve your prompts, produce dependable structured outputs with validation, and balance quality against cost and latency.
Yes. The course is 100% free with no paywall, and you earn a free certificate of completion you can add to your resume or LinkedIn profile.
Go beyond wording a single prompt. Learn to control everything an AI model sees: build a reusable context pack, feed long documents so nothing gets lost, choose between pasting and retrieval, and manage long conversations with clean handoffs. Works with ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and any other assistant. No code.
Find out why ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini feel helpful, polite, and safe instead of just completing text. A short, no-code course on reinforcement learning, supervised fine-tuning, reward models, PPO and DPO, and the side effects of alignment like sycophancy and reward hacking. The natural next step after How LLMs Actually Work.
Go one level under the hood of ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini. Understand tokens, next-token prediction, context windows, model parameters, Mixture of Experts, and why AI models cost money to run. A short, no-code course for people who use AI every day.
Go beyond generic prompt engineering and master Claude-specific techniques. Learn XML tags, extended thinking, system prompt design, CLAUDE.md files, MCP integration, and agentic workflows to unlock Claude's full potential.
Master the art of chaining AI prompts and building sophisticated workflows. Learn to design multi-step AI pipelines, handle errors gracefully, implement branching logic, manage context, and build production-ready AI workflows for research, content creation, and code generation.
Master prompt engineering through hands-on exercises. Learn prompt structure, few-shot learning, chain-of-thought reasoning, and advanced techniques with instant feedback. Build real-world prompts for code generation, content writing, and data analysis.
