Questions operators ask.

Everything we get asked about the live programs: format, price, refunds, what you need set up, and who it is for.

01 / Every question

The full list.

How long is each class?
Each day is one 3-hour session, so about 6 hours of live instruction across the two days. Most cohorts run 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM PT (1:00 - 4:00 PM ET / 7:00 - 10:00 PM CEST) on both days; the Asia-Pacific-friendly option runs 5:00 - 8:00 PM PT. Every session includes a short ~10-minute break. On top of the live days there is about an hour of self-guided onboarding in the course portal (a quick intake, a brainstorm, a guided setup checklist, and an AI primer) you do before Day 1. Day 1 is the Operator Day: run your business on Claude (claude.ai, Cowork, Design). Day 2 is the Builder Day: Claude Code, the always-on operator setup, and the developer platform. Sessions run live on Zoom and are recorded - your cohort's recordings land in your course portal, yours to keep.
Who is Claude Camp for?
Ambitious operators - entrepreneurs, solopreneurs, AI builders, bootstrappers, ex-engineers going solopreneur, college kids and young adults filling the gap left by junior tech jobs, and engineers whose companies aren't training them in-house on AI. The unifying trait: you're actively building something and want to operate the full Claude stack the way Kev does day-to-day to run a portfolio of products. Pure CS-engineering depth isn't the bar - applied, breadth-first technical fluency is. Prior Claude experience helps but isn't required; the guided pre-work brings everyone to the same baseline before the live days start.
Is Claude Camp a Claude Code intensive?
Claude Code is the centerpiece of Day 2, but Claude Camp is the full Claude stack - Day 1 covers claude.ai's underused features (projects, artifacts, Deep Research, custom instructions), Claude Cowork (workspaces, connectors, skills, Live Artifacts, scheduled tasks, computer use), and Claude Design (design systems, mocks, assets, publish-to-code). Day 2 then goes deep on Claude Code (CLAUDE.md, skills, MCPs, slash commands, Routines), the always-on operator setup (mobile + remote-control + 24/7 machine patterns), and the developer platform (Messages API, Agent SDK, Managed Agents) at operator depth - enough to direct, spec, or hire any agentic build going forward.
Do I get any 1:1 time with the instructor?
Yes, on both ends, included in your seat. Before Day 1 you can book a 15-minute cohort prep call to get set up and decide what you'll point the two days at. After your cohort wraps you get a 30-minute 1:1 session to go deep on what you built and what to do next. Both are with Kev directly, and both are offered to every attendee - some people use both, some use neither. If you want to keep going after that, I do ongoing 1:1 coaching.
Do I get a certificate?
Yes. Every operator who completes the cohort gets a Claude Camp certificate of completion you can add to LinkedIn or submit for L&D reimbursement. It confirms 6+ hours of live Claude instruction and participation in the hands-on build blocks. It's a secondary perk rather than the reason to come, and it is not an Anthropic certification (see below).
Is this official Anthropic training?
No. Claude Camp is independent and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or produced in partnership with Anthropic. The curriculum is built from daily production use of Claude across claude.ai, Cowork, Design, Code, the Agent SDK, and the API. We cover Anthropic's products because they are what we teach. All opinions, materials, and certificates are ours, not Anthropic's.
What if I'm new to Claude?
Built for you. Reserving unlocks the course portal, which gets you ready before Day 1: a quick intake, a short brainstorm of what you want Claude working on, a guided setup checklist, and a 10-minute AI primer - about an hour, at your own pace. That's the whole point of it: we don't burn a single live minute on setup, and you're never the person holding up the room. From minute one, the live days are hands-on across the full Claude stack, applied to your own work - you learn Claude the way Kev actually uses it day-to-day, not through scattered docs and tutorials. Plenty of attendees come in with light Claude usage or none at all - nobody's behind.
What if I'm already pretty good with Claude?
If you've been using Claude Code daily but never opened Cowork, never built a custom Skill, haven't published a Claude Design system into a repo, don't run Claude from your phone, don't have a 24/7 always-on Claude setup - Day 2 will be revelation-density. Most experienced Claude users have a deep but narrow surface (heavy Claude Code, light everything else). The intensive is bottom-up across the full product suite specifically so the breadth gaps get filled.
Is there something more advanced for engineers?
Yes: Engineering Day, the advanced day that follows each cohort week (Thursdays, 10 AM-1 PM PT). One arc: build a company brain on your real knowledge with RAG and knowledge management, put a hosted agent on it (Agent SDK and Managed Agents), and deploy it live. $399 standalone, or $299 when added to your 2-Day seat. See /engineering-day for dates and details.
What if I'm not technical?
You're a fit. The cohort is built for operators, not pure software engineers - and nothing in the live days requires a terminal, an IDE, or git. Everything runs in the Claude app. The course portal is your on-ramp: a quick intake, a brainstorm, a guided setup checklist, and an AI primer, all at your own pace before the cohort - plus your included 15-minute prep call with the lead instructor if you want a human on it. You arrive oriented and ready, never behind.
What if I fall behind during live sessions?
Every session is recorded, and your cohort's recordings land in your course portal alongside the decks and every live exercise - so you can rewatch anything and redo any block at your own pace. Cohorts cap at 12 seats, so every question lands and you get direct attention from Kev throughout. Your seat also includes a 30-minute 1:1 session after the cohort wraps, which is the place to go deep on anything that didn't fully land.
Do I need a Mac?
No. Everything runs in the Claude app, which works the same on Mac and Windows - there's no terminal or toolchain to configure. The course portal's setup checklist covers the couple of installs that matter, and if anything fights you, your included 15-minute prep call sorts it before Day 1.
What Claude subscription do I need?
Claude Pro ($20/mo) is the minimum and it includes Claude Code. For the cohort we recommend Claude Max ($100/mo), because Pro's usage limits are shared across Claude and Claude Code and can run out partway through a full day of hands-on building. Either plan works for the live sessions. Max just gives you comfortable headroom so you never stall mid-exercise.
Can I use my company's Claude account?
A personal account is preferred. Claude Code is available on Team and Enterprise plans, so a company subscription can technically work, but corporate setups often add VPN, network, or admin restrictions that block Claude Code, connectors, or the developer console. If your company setup is fully unrestricted, you're fine to use it. If you're not sure, a personal account skips the guesswork. It's never a blocker, just not always the smoothest path.
What's the refund policy?
Money-back guarantee: if you attend and the cohort isn't right for you, email kev@claudecamp.ai within 7 days of your cohort's end date and we'll make it right. Refunds process through Stripe within 7 business days. The premise is that the product is worth your time; if it isn't for you, you can step away without paying. See our Terms for the full policy.
What's the best way to learn Claude end-to-end?
Three honest paths. (1) Read Anthropic's official docs and watch their YouTube talks - free, slow, and the gaps are invisible to you. (2) Use Claude daily across the surface for 30+ days - you'll get good at the part you use most (usually Claude Code) and plateau on the rest (Cowork, Design, the API, Managed Agents, mobile, remote control). (3) Take a live cohort like Claude Camp - fastest path because you watch a daily operator solve real problems across the whole stack in real time and can ask questions. The intensive is built for the people who have done (1) and (2) and want the breadth + operator patterns that don't compound from solo use.
Is Claude Camp worth it?
If you're an operator using AI tools daily but feel like you're scratching the surface - never opened Cowork, never published a Claude Design system, don't run agentic Claude Code from your phone, don't have an always-on Claude setup, can't sketch what you'd do with the API or Agent SDK - yes. The ROI shows up within the first week after the cohort because you'll ship workflows you wouldn't have built on your own. If you're brand-new to AI tools and just need the basics, free Anthropic docs plus a few weeks of daily use will get you 80% there for $0. Claude Camp is built for operators who want the remaining 20% that doesn't compound from solo learning.
Who teaches Claude Camp?
Kev Gary - a professional engineer with 10+ years of experience at big-tech companies across Silicon Valley, two years using Claude exclusively in and outside of work, and founder of Claude Camp. Kev operates a portfolio of products (Claude Camp, learned.ai, SnowFire, and several partner-distributed iOS apps in development) entirely on the Claude stack - including a 24/7 always-on Claude operating system spanning desktop, mobile, and remote control. The curriculum comes from real daily production use as an operator-founder, not from CS theory.
Can my company pay for this?
Yes - two paths. (1) Individual seats with company reimbursement: we offer invoice and PO billing, email us with your company details and we'll send an invoice your AP can process (education / L&D budgets work). (2) Private team programs: if you're a small or mid-size company running a Claude or AI org-transformation and want a tailored bootcamp for your whole team (engineers + operators + leadership), Claude Camp runs custom enterprise engagements.
