- ✓Understand how AI tools and workflow automation work together
- ✓Design repeatable processes that reduce manual work
- ✓Use no-code and low-code platforms to connect applications and data
- ✓Build AI-enabled systems for real organisational functions
- ✓Develop a portfolio of practical automation projects
How AI and Automation Work Together
Process
Use AI to understand, classify, summarise, or generate a useful result from the input.
Automate
Apply rules, filters, and routers to decide the next action and execute it in another tool.
Track
Store the outcome for follow-up, reporting, and quality control.
A 3 months experiential learning journey built around the way modern product teams actually work.
HANDS-ON PRACTICEActively build workflows and AI-supported systems throughout the programme using platforms like Zapier, Make, and n8n.
LIVE WEEKEND CLASSESInstructor-led virtual sessions provide explanation, guided building, demonstrations, and feedback.
PROJECT-BASED LEARNINGPractical projects connect tools and concepts to real business problems, building toward a final capstone system.
MENTORSHIP & PEER SESSIONSMentorship helps you clarify concepts and improve solutions, while peer sessions let you compare approaches and solve problems together.
