Program details

The 'Claude for Teachers's program also provides a set of education-focused skills, co-developed with Learning Commons.

These skills are specifically designed around tasks that teachers have said matter most in their classrooms.

They were evaluated for rigor, pedagogical alignment, and classroom usability before being refined through early feedback from real-world classroom teachers.

Along with the education-focused skills, 'Claude for Teachers' also provides access to Claude Cowork and Claude Code.

The company has also released a fluency guide for teachers who want to use AI in their classrooms, further enhancing the educational experience with cutting-edge technology.
