The eight levels, how lessons, labs, simulations and the War Room fit together, and what earns the certificate.
In this lesson
- Eight levels, one dependency chain
- Functional, technical, then job-ready
- Practice is where skill is built
Key points
- Eight levels from Orientation to Techno-Functional Professional
- Functional side first (Levels 1–3), technical side next (4–6), career last (7)
- Labs, simulators and the War Room build judgement
- Certificate: core lessons, six labs, the final assessment and an approved capstone
Real-world example
Amaka works in accounts at a Lagos distributor and wants to become an Odoo consultant. She does one lesson a night on her phone and the labs on Saturdays. By week ten she's classifying fit-gap requirements faster than her trainer; by week twenty-four she's configured a full multi-company database, written a small module that adds a field and a report, and walks interviewers through her capstone.
