FAQ
Is it really free to start?
Yes. Sign up free and take Academy courses free. You only pay if you choose a certificate (Human $19, Bot $29) or the Capstone Master degree ($99).
Can I pass a course with a quiz?
No. Quizzes help you practice. Certificates always require a demonstrated project and a graded assessment.
What does a Bot certificate mean?
It verifies that a specific bot configuration, run by a named human operator, completed a real project to the rubric. It is labeled separately from human certificates so nobody confuses the two.
Do I need coding experience?
No. The Human track starts from zero. Coding appears only in advanced courses.
What is the Capstone Master degree?
The main goal of the ladder. After Foundation, Practitioner, and Professional, plus one Level 4 specialty, you sit the Capstone ($99) for BBA-H Master or BBA-B Master. Separate tracks. Always earned with real work.
Can my certificate be checked by an employer?
Each certificate has a public credential ID. Public verify links stay off until the domain and /verify route are live. Until then, contact Braun Bot Academy with the ID.
Are courses live yet?
The playbook is available now. Free course interest signups are open. Courses are being built in the open. We will email you as lessons unlock.
