# AI Automation with n8n

> Build AI-powered automation workflows that connect tools, data, and services for business operations. This mentor-led course teaches agent-style automation using n8n through practical scenarios and workflow design exercises.

## Overview

Organisations increasingly rely on automation to connect applications, manage workflows, and improve operational efficiency. Modern automation platforms now integrate artificial intelligence capabilities, enabling systems that can analyse information, trigger actions, and coordinate tasks across business tools.

This mentor-led programme introduces participants to AI-driven automation using n8n, a flexible workflow orchestration platform. Learners explore how to design workflows that connect APIs, applications, and AI services to automate real operational processes. Through practical scenarios, participants build structured automation pipelines for tasks such as notifications, data processing, and operational workflows.

The course also introduces agent-style automation concepts, where workflows coordinate multiple steps, tools, and decisions. By the end of the programme, learners will understand how to design, implement, and evaluate AI-enabled automation workflows suitable for modern business environments.
