Automation Fundamentals: In-Person Open Learning with Techosaurus

Automation is no longer a technical advantage, it is a business literacy. Automation Fundamentals is a six-hour, in-person open learning course from Techosaurus, designed to give individuals and businesses a practical foundation in how automation really works. Delivered onsite at iAero in Yeovil, this course focuses on the language, logic and methodology of automation rather than locking learners into one specific platform. You will learn how automations are structured beneath the surface, including triggers, actions, conditions, loops, approvals and error handling. The day is designed to make automation accessible, practical and immediately useful. You will explore how to think in systems, processes and flow, identify opportunities within your own organisation, and learn how to document workflows clearly enough for future implementation. The course also includes a clear, honest overview of the current automation tooling landscape, including Power Automate, Make, Zapier, n8n, relay.app and IFTTT. The focus is on when and why you would use different types of tools rather than overwhelming you with feature comparisons or technical setup. A key part of the experience is access to Autonosim, Techosaurus’ own virtual automation builder. This gives you a safe space to design and understand automations without needing accounts, subscriptions or previous technical experience. By the end of the course, you will leave with practical ideas for what you can automate in your business, improved process documentation habits, structured learning material to refer back to, a digital Techosaurus certificate, a LinkedIn badge, and priority booking for future Techosaurus open learning courses. This course is ideal for individuals, business owners, team leaders, managers and anyone who wants to understand automation properly before buying, building or committing to a specific platform. Delegates will leave with:

• A clearer understanding of how automation works in real business contexts
• A practical automation thinking framework they can reuse
• Hands-on experience mapping and improving real business processes
• A better understanding of triggers, actions, conditions, loops, approvals and error handling
