Sisters Who AI is a free, supportive learning community for women ready to build practical AI skills and use them for good. Join a small cohort, master the tools, and start making an impact—no tech background required.
Pick a season that fits your schedule. Twelve seats, two evenings a week, all on Zoom — and always free.
Study Anthropic Academy course materials (on your own or in a mentor-led group), then practice as a group during our live lab sessions.
Finish your capstone project and earn an official Anthropic certificate to add to your LinkedIn.
Every cohort follows the same 8-week journey. Enrollment closes automatically once a cohort fills.
Our curriculum is built on official, free video courses from Anthropic Academy — made by the company behind Claude. You'll complete four of them: three foundations everyone takes, plus one path you choose.
Meet your cohort — and meet Claude. You'll leave your first week already using AI for everyday tasks.
▶COURSE 1 OF 4Claude 101Put Claude to work on real documents — summarizing, drafting, and organizing alongside you.
▶COURSE 2 OF 4Introduction to Claude CoworkThe 4D Framework for working with AI thoughtfully and effectively — the foundation for everything after. At the end of this week, you'll choose your path.
▶COURSE 3 OF 4AI Fluency: Framework & FoundationsYour fourth and final course is the one you choose. Most paths take about 3 hours; Teaching AI Fluency is meatier at 5–6. Either way, two full weeks gives you room to go deep.
No new videos this week — instead, an applied workshop on bias, privacy, and knowing when not to use AI.
Use everything you've learned on a project that matters to you.
Present your capstone progress and share future plans. This is just your beginning!
Your cohort is just the beginning. Anthropic Academy has several more free courses waiting — and you don't have to be a coder to benefit from most of them.
Model Context Protocol (MCP) lets Claude work with your apps, files, and tools. No coding needed to use pre-built connectors — just curiosity about what's possible.
Claude Code can build scripts, automate tasks, and solve technical problems — even if you've never written a line of code. You direct; Claude does the coding.
For graduates ready to go all-in: build Claude-powered apps and deploy them through AWS or Google Cloud. This one does require coding knowledge.

Connect on LinkedIn →Sisters Who AI (SWAI) didn’t start in a boardroom or a tech incubator. It started in the back of a cab in Dakar, Senegal.
We had just left a local orphanage, our minds heavy with the stark realities of wealth disparity and the historic exploitation of African resources. As we watched the city pass by, our conversation turned to the future. We didn’t just feel a profound weight of responsibility, we felt motivated and hopeful as we asked ourselves: What is our role in this moment?
With AI rewriting the rules of society, we realized the conversation around technology was missing the point. It isn’t just that people will be left behind—it’s that they will be shut out from shaping the future.
We didn’t want our communities to just be passive consumers of the AI age. We wanted them to be its architects.
That conviction is why we created Sisters Who AI. It is a space designed purely for collective empowerment. We aren’t just learning to code or prompt; we are learning how to channel this incredibly powerful technology to solve real-world problems and uplift those around us.
If you believe that the future of technology belongs to all of us, and you want to use AI as a force for good—we built this space for you.
