How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. New Registration Receivedtrigger

Attendee submits registration via form or email. The automation platform detects the submission and extracts attendee details.

2. Validate and Deduplicate

The automation checks the attendee record against existing registrations to prevent duplicates and flags any missing required fields.

3. Create Attendee Record

A new contact record is created with all attendee details, training cohort, and registration date.

4. Send Confirmation Email

An automated email is sent to the attendee with training details, pre-training instructions, and a link to onboarding materials.

5. Generate Onboarding Checklist

An onboarding checklist is automatically created with pre-training tasks and due dates based on the training type.

6. Notify Team

A message is posted to the training team channel with attendee details and a link to the onboarding checklist for visibility.

7. Schedule Reminder Messages

Automated reminders are scheduled to be sent to the attendee at key milestones: 7 days before training, 1 day before, and on training day.
