Ive just completed the foundations course 🙌 ... im not sure where to go from here but i will go into the vault and get through everything there

Tell us three things: 1. What you do (job, industry, student, career-changer, whatever) 2. What brought you to Clief Notes 3. One thing you're trying to figure out right now related to computing or AI I'll respond to every single one. And read each other's intros too because the person who's stuck on the same problem as you might already be in this thread. I'll go first I am Jake, I have been working in tech for 15 Years, building with Generative AI for 3 Years straight now! Excited to teach and learn! That's it. Simple, scannable, gives you data on who's joining and what they need, and keeps the feed clear for content that retains people past week one.

I keep going back and forth between: “I should learn a bit more first” and“ I should just start and figure it out”. Some days I feel like I’m close to understanding it, other days it feels like I’m missing something obvious. Not sure if that’s just part of the process or I’m overthinking it. Anyone else went through this at the start?

First Monday. First winner. Let's go. @Alexander Paschka topped the 7-day leaderboard with +454 points and earned himself free lifetime VIP access. (Thousands of dollars in value) He was already a paying VIP member, so we upgraded him to Free lifetime access. Free members get upgraded to Premium etc. That's how this works. You show up, you lead, you get taken care of. Now here's the part worth paying attention to. Alexander didn't rack up 454 points by gaming the system. He posted a real Win🏆. One of his clients is buying 10 seats of Claude Enterprise, and Alexander is leading the training. He learned how to do that here. Then he went out and sold it. The community went crazy because that post was useful. People wanted to know how he did it, what he said, how the conversation went. That's engagement you can't fake. You share something real, people respond. And that's the lesson buried in the leaderboard. The thing that got Alexander to #1 is the same thing that works on LinkedIn, on YouTube, on any platform where attention matters. You give people something they can use and they come back for more. The skills that make you valuable in this community make you valuable everywhere else too. I mean its the reason this community exists in the first place. And now you have a place to practice it, if it works here you know it will work every where else. Shoutout to @David Vogel at #2 with +221. David has been showing up in almost every post and every live class adding real, specific, helpful input. Consistent. Week after week. (He earned VIP early on) Keep watching that name. Millenial Cat and Shirsho Guha rounded out the top 4. Respect. The leaderboard resets soon. New week. New race. Whoever is on top next Monday morning gets the same deal. Free lifetime Premium if you're on the free plan. Free lifetime VIP if you're already VIP.

For those who missed the first post or just joined: The Lyceum is a 12-week program we're building. Live instruction from Jake and the Eduba team. Small cohorts. Real projects. You build something from week one, not watch tutorials. At the end, a competition with real prizes. Eduba's first certification, backed by the same methodology we've used to train Fortune 500 teams. Now here's what we've locked in since then. The Structure Three 4-week sprints with a 1-week break between each. Not 12 straight weeks of grind. You build, you breathe, you come back sharper. - Sprint 1: Foundation — Core methodology. Everyone starts here. - Sprint 2: Application — You're building. Real project, real progress. - Sprint 3: Capstone — Finish what you started. Demo day prep. The breaks aren't fluff. They're built in so you can catch up, refine, or just live your life without falling behind. The Cohorts Same curriculum across all three. The difference is where your hours go. Technical — Developers, engineers, technical founders. You're building a tool or production system. 30% of your time goes to Claude Code and integrations. Another 30% to production systems and capstone. This is the builder track. Business — Ops, managers, founders, consultants. You're automating a process or designing a system spec. Heavy emphasis on workflow design (30%) and decision frameworks (25%). You direct the work without writing the code. Creator — Marketers, educators, solo operators. You're building a content production system. One person replaces the team. 25% on content pipelines, 20% on workflow design. This is how you scale yourself. Pick the track that matches how you work. The methodology transfers no matter which one you choose. A 4th Cohort? We're considering adding a team cohort if there's enough interest. This would be for companies that want to enroll multiple employees, or for people in the community who want to form their own team and build together. If that sounds like you, let us know in the comments.
