5-Day Claude and Copilot Course for Colleges and Universities in India (2026): Student Track and Faculty Development Programme
PUBLISHED 1 NOVEMBER 2026 • BY PARIKSHIT KHANNA • FACTS CHECKED 31 OCTOBER 2026
Quick answer
A five day programme gives a college two things at once. Students learn to use Claude and Microsoft Copilot for research, writing, analysis and placement preparation, and faculty learn to teach with AI and redesign assessments so AI use is honest and visible. Many faculty development programmes cover ChatGPT, Gemini and Copilot but leave out Claude; this course covers both Claude and Copilot, with daily outputs and a final project.
Five day plan: students and faculty
Day | Student track | Faculty track |
Day 1 | How AI models work, their limits, and academic integrity | The same foundations, plus drafting an AI use policy for your institution |
Day 2 | Research and reading: Claude Projects for course material, source checking and summaries | Lesson plans, question banks and rubrics with Claude Projects |
Day 3 | Writing and presentations: drafts and feedback, Copilot in Word and PowerPoint, Claude Artifacts | Assessment redesign: viva, process portfolios and AI use declarations |
Day 4 | Data skills: Copilot in Excel and Claude data analysis with charts | Research support: literature mapping, data analysis and disclosure in papers |
Day 5 | Career: resume, interview practice and LinkedIn profile; capstone presentations | Faculty showcase: one redesigned module and a semester plan |
Run it as five consecutive days, or as one day a week across five weeks so it fits your academic calendar.
