Take your seat in the classroom
You've joined Prof Rod — a free classroom for people who run things. One lesson a week on handing real work to an AI agent, the guardrails that keep it honest, and the evidence that it actually got done. Free, and it stays free.
Here's What Happens Next
Starting this week, you'll receive:
One Lesson a Week
A single concept, the delegation it makes possible, and the worked example you can copy on Monday.
Field Notes In Between
Short observations from the week — what broke, what fixed it — posted as they land.
Worked Examples, Start to Finish
Two spreadsheets reconciled, a contract folder turned into a renewals tracker, a monthly report that drafts itself.
Essays on What It Costs
What actually changed, what the bill looks like, and the places the whole thing breaks.
The Lab
Agent workflows other practitioners have already run, with the setup written down.
All of it points at one thing: handing real work to an agent, and being able to prove it got done.

The first two keep future lessons out of spam. The third one I read — it tells me what to teach next.
Lesson One Is Already Open
No need to wait for Thursday. The first lesson of Claude Code for Business is ungated, and it takes four minutes.

Chatbot vs. Coworker
The skill on trial is not prompting. It is delegating — handing a bounded task to something that can read your files, do the work, and show you what it did.
Read Lesson OneThe practitioners doing this for real are at the Prof Rod community. It is for learners and practitioners building capability.
There is a paid cohort. It has its own page, and it will not come looking for you here.
Where Should You Start?
Pick the one that sounds like you. I'll point you at three things worth your first twenty minutes.
