How It Works
A Real Path Into AI Work
Brown Forces is an Anthropic Claude Partner. As we sign on more institutions — schools, clinics, cities, businesses — we need people on the ground who can help bring this technology in. The Bench is how we build that team.
It is a commitment from both sides. You commit to the work. We commit to training you, paying you when contracts come in, and putting our name behind yours.
The Path
Four Steps onto The Bench
No shortcut, no gatekeeping. Sign up, commit, train, and get deployed.
Sign Up
Tell us who you are, what you do today, and what you want to learn. Use the form below.
Commit
Sign a simple agreement that says you want to be part of Brown Forces and you are willing to put in the work. No fees, no contracts that lock you in — just a handshake on what we both expect.
Get Your @brownforces.io Email and Training
Once Anthropic's training program goes live for our partner network, we put you through it. You get a Brown Forces email address and access to our internal tools while you train.
Get Anthropic-Certified and Deployed
After Brown Forces training, we refer you through the official Anthropic Academy for certification — and place you on real contracts as a Brown Forces practitioner.
Who This Is For
People Who Want to Stay and Build Here
Educators. Tradespeople. Healthcare workers. Designers. Developers. Anyone with a real reason to stay in the Coachella Valley and a real interest in working with AI.
You do not need a computer science degree. You need to show up and put in the work.
Institution Partners
