GitHub Copilot and Claude Code Developer Training (Instructor-Led)

GitHub Copilot and Claude Code Developer Training (Instructor-Led)
Last Updated on 3rd September, 2026

GitHub Copilot and Claude Code Developer Training is a structured,instructor-led training program designed for software developers, technical leads, and engineering teams who want to make practical use of AI in their daily development work. The course provides a hands-on learning experience focused on using GitHub Copilot and Claude Code to improve productivity across the software development lifecycle. It is delivered by a senior trainer who guides participants through each module with a strong emphasis on real-world development scenarios.


As AI capabilities continue to evolve, software development teams are gradually moving beyond traditional coding approaches and adopting AI-assisted workflows. Organizations are increasingly looking for developers who can work effectively with AI tools, understand how to provide the right context, review AI-generated outputs, and use these technologies responsibly within established engineering practices.

This training is designed to help participants build those skills. The course covers prompt engineering, code generation, context management, testing, debugging, code reviews, pull requests,and modern AI-assisted development workflows. Participants will also explore topics such as agents,skills, Model Context Protocol (MCP), enterprise integrations, customization options, and deployment automation using Azure DevOps. Throughout the program, the focus remains on practical application, helping teams understand where these tools can provide value and how they can be integrated into existing development processes.


Rather than treating GitHub Copilot and Claude Code as separate products, the course brings together common concepts and development patterns used across both platforms. This approach helps learners understand the underlying principles of AI-assisted software development while gaining hands-on experience with the tools themselves.
