The content plan, module by module.

7 recorded hours from an instructor, taken in order at your own pace. Nova grades the work at the end of each module.

  1. Processes worth automating

    Triggers and steps

    Idempotency in plain words

The projects.

Each is deployed and graded by Nova against a rubric you can read before you start.

  1. Project 1

    A scheduled automation

    Pick a weekly chore from your own work, or use a fictional café's supplier price sheet, and build an n8n or Make workflow that runs it on a schedule. Running it twice must not send duplicates or double-count anything.

    You hand in
    • Exported workflow file
    • Test run records
    • One-page process map
    The rubric requires

    The workflow survives a rerun without duplicate or repeated actions.

  2. Project 2

    An approval-gated agent step

    Add an LLM step that reads incoming enquiries, for example to the café's inbox, and returns structured output: a category, a suggested reply and its reasoning. Nothing is sent until a person approves it, and every decision is logged.

    You hand in
    • Workflow with LLM step
    • Approval step
    • Decision log
    • Sample of approved outputs
    The rubric requires

    Every decision is logged with its evidence and nothing goes out without approval.

  3. Project 3

    A real process automated

    Automate a real process from your own work, or a fictional small agency's lead intake across a form, a spreadsheet and a chat channel. Map it first, build it with retries, and set alerts so a failure reaches a person.

    You hand in
    • Process map
    • Exported automation
    • Monitoring and alert setup
    • Recorded demo of a failure
    The rubric requires

    A seeded failure triggers an alert that reaches someone.

What you can do at the end.

Three business processes off your plate and three graded projects on your record.

  1. 1

    Think in triggers, steps and outputs.

  2. 2

    Build a scheduled workflow.

  3. 3

    Add an LLM step with structured output and human approval.

  4. 4

    Integrate three tools with error handling.

  5. 5

    Automate a real process and monitor it.

Your record at the end.

Every exercise and project is graded by Nova against a rubric you can read, and every grade is kept on one page an employer can open and run. This is what the programme writes to it.

Graded, line by line
Nova reads every submission against the brief and the rubric and returns a score, what you did well and what to fix.
Module by module
Each module ends in graded work; the next opens when you are ready, on your own schedule.

Help is about your actual work, because the tutor has every submission and every failed exercise of yours.

    A path to the live cohort
