You're Probably Wondering...

Yes — AI can generate scripts from plain English. That's real. But the accountability of owning the code lies with you, and without the right architecture, you cannot control the code it produces. Code that's not understood can't be managed. An AI-generated test suite can look complete and be dangerously incomplete. Someone has to read it. Someone has to question it. Someone has to own it. In an interview, it's not your ability to prompt that's assessed, but your sound knowledge and your ability to steer AI in the right direction and catch it when it gets things wrong — that is what we will equip you with.

The program is structured around your working week with weekend sessions only. Practice between sessions focuses on specific actions that genuinely advance your progress rather than busy work. Proper AI tool usage also reduces implementation time. You won't need to abandon your current employment during the 6 weeks.

That depends on what you're trying to do. If you're moving to a new employer, the stack here covers what appears on virtually every Australian automation job description right now. If you're looking to transition into automation at your current company, the more important question is whether you'll be able to pick up their specific tools once you have the fundamentals — and the answer is yes. Automation concepts transfer across frameworks and languages: the architecture, the patterns, the CI/CD thinking, the API testing approach. Once you can write real automation code and genuinely understand what you're doing, your company's specific tool becomes a weeks-long learning task, not a months-long one. That's exactly what this program trains you to do — a repeatable approach for picking up any new technology fast. I am happy to discuss your specific situation.

We picked Python because it's the easiest language to learn and gives you a genuinely strong foundation to build on as you grow. It also transfers well: Python aligns closely with Java and C#, and programming fundamentals transfer across languages. Once you understand programming in Python, Java and C# become a syntax change and not a learning problem. All of what we have learnt will still be relevant.

Passive watching doesn't build lasting skills. This program emphasises real code work with live expert review addressing your specific challenges. Unlike other institutions, this is not a 2-3 day session that is mostly theoretical. We take the time to ensure you build the skills you need. Month one is designed to demonstrate visible progress fast — a personal roadmap, genuine code, professional feedback, and measurable project advancement. Within weeks, you'll know whether this approach is working.

This is an investment in yourself — in a career that can pay off many times over across its lifetime. Measured against what it can do for your earning potential and job prospects, the program is an absolute steal for the value it delivers.

Because Cohort 1 is the founding cohort. You get the full program at $4,500 — a limited discount off the program's $7,500 standard price, and well under what comparable programs charge ($10,000–$15,000) — and in return, the first graduates become the proof this program stands on. That discount is only available while Cohort 1 is open. If you're reading this before the founding seats are gone, you're simply early — and early is cheaper. ($7,500 is the program's standard price, used as the reference value for this discount — pricing beyond Cohort 1 is set at Hanura Next's discretion and may vary.)

It's a free 30-minute conversation — not a sales pitch. We talk about where you are in your career, what you're trying to protect or build, and whether this program actually fits your situation. You ask anything you like and get straight answers. If it's not the right fit, I'll tell you that too. No pressure, no obligation, and nothing to prepare.

The program front-loads support, roadmap development, feedback, and project materials before requiring full commitment. Most programs collect money first and deliver later. I deliver first, prove the value, and let the result make the decision obvious. The readiness benchmark exists because accountability is measured by what graduates can actually do.

You don't need a programming background. Month one deliberately lowers the learning curve: instruction starts from QA reasoning, introduces syntax contextually, leverages AI appropriately, and provides feedback before confusion becomes discouragement. Your existing testing instincts are the foundation.

Sessions are recorded — missing one doesn't mean falling behind. For significant circumstances, deferral to the next cohort preserves your progress without extra expense. Progress doesn't reset; you continue from where you left off. First-month deposits are fully refundable if major changes occur.
