AI Automation and Agentic Systems

From controlled task automation to agent architectures with bounded permissions.

Discuss your training needs A programme for your team

Who it is for

Process owners, implementation specialists, IT teams and people responsible for workflow automation.

In practice

An agentic system can plan and perform connected actions using authorised tools. Design its permissions, checkpoints and arrangements for human takeover.

Entry requirements

AI Foundations Level I competence or equivalent knowledge and familiarity with a process you want to improve. Level I does not require programming; higher levels involve integrations and structured data.

Levels II and III require the preceding level’s competencies or verified equivalent experience. Preparation is agreed before enrolment. Higher levels introduce technical elements; tool requirements are confirmed in advance.

Three development levels

Level I / Foundation

Automation with AI

Duration and participation

Learning time: 16 teaching periods / 12 clock hours
Course days: 2
Maximum group size: 10 participants
Price: Individual quotation

This course includes 16 teaching periods of 45 minutes, equivalent to 12 clock hours of learning. Standard delivery takes 2 days. Each day includes 8 teaching periods (6 hours of learning) and a total of 1 hour of breaks.

An example day runs from 09:00 to 16:00. This schedule requires 14 hours of attendance in total, including 12 hours of learning and 2 hours of breaks. Practice and competency assessment are included in the learning time. Dates, start times and any shorter-session schedule are agreed before enrolment.

Delivery can be live online or in person, subject to agreed location and arrangements. Larger teams are divided into separate groups of up to 10 participants. Technical and organisational requirements are provided before you confirm attendance.

A proposal shaped around your needs

We prepare an individual proposal based on your training objectives, participants’ experience and delivery format. We discuss the scope and commercial terms before you confirm participation. Your proposal sets out the programme, delivery arrangements and total cost.

Certification rules

ProSentinel — AI Automation and Agentic Systems Specialist

Specialist certification requires successful assessments at all three levels of the track and a current Level III credential. Passing a higher level does not automatically award lower-level credentials.

The knowledge test requires at least 80%. Practical assessment requires all specified competencies; breaches of safety or independent-work rules prevent a pass. Attendance alone does not confer certification.

Certification is valid for 36 months. Renew a level through a current assessment of its competencies; renew a specialisation through a Level III assessment covering the whole track. Academy rules on retakes, appeals and an independent certification decision apply.

This is ProSentinel Academy’s own competency certification system. It is not a state or regulated qualification, an academic degree or an ISO certificate.
