Who trains you

We build Zaps for real clients, not just in theory.

Most Zapier trainings are run by people who read the docs the night before. At Hack'celeration it's the opposite: multi-step Zaps, paths, webhooks and the Formatter wired into real apps, that's our daily agency work. Everything we teach you, we practice on shipped projects. We know the traps (the single-step Zap that drops records, the task bill that explodes) because we've already solved them.

  • We build Zaps for real clients every week, not just in theory
  • 1-on-1 format: the trainer adapts to your level, beginner or seasoned ops
  • We tell you when Zapier isn't the right call (sometimes n8n or Make handles your load better)
  • We start from your real account and your actual workflows, not a dummy example

What you master

Four pillars so your Zaps hold and get measured.

A badly used Zapier means fragile single-step Zaps, doubled records, a task bill that swells. Most of the trouble comes from the design, not the tool. We pick up your real account and work through the four pillars together.

Certified Hack'celeration trainers

Meet our trainers, leave with a plan.

Drop your email. We get back to you to connect you with a Hack'celeration-certified trainer: we look at your Zapier account, spot the fragile Zaps and where your team loses time to copy-paste, and tell you where to start. No commitment, even if you don't take the training.

  • A diagnosis of your account (Zaps, dedup, task usage)
  • The first Zaps to build, in priority order
  • The right 1-on-1 format for your level and your apps
  • An honest take: Zapier or n8n for your case
How it runs

Your Zapier program, step by step.

Five steps, no skipping. Each one on your real account, with a clear deliverable. From the first session we go after what's costing you time. By the end, you run your Zaps and your maintenance without us.

  1. Step 1 · Account audit

    We open your real Zapier account and spot what's broken

    First session, we share your screen and look at your account together. Are your Zaps single-step and fragile? Is there any dedup, any error handling? How many tasks are you burning each month? We list what's costing you time in copy-paste and what's at risk of failing silently. You leave with a clear diagnosis and the list of Zaps to build, in priority order. No theory, your real account.

  2. Step 2 · Design before you build

    We plan your Zaps and your data model

    We map each automation as a flow: the trigger, the paths it branches into, the filters that stop it on bad data, and where a webhook or a Formatter step is needed. We decide together what lives in Zapier Tables and what stays in your apps. Designing first means building something that scales instead of a pile of single-step Zaps nobody untangles six months later.

  3. Step 3 · Build with guardrails

    Multi-step Zaps, paths, filters and Formatter on your cases

    We build for real on your account. Multi-step Zaps with paths and filters, the Formatter to clean dates, text and numbers, dedup so records don't double. We test on real data, not a happy-path sample, so the workflow survives the dirty inputs your apps actually send. You practice on your own cases and finish with Zaps that are named and documented, not untitled mysteries in your account.

  4. Step 4 · Connect and monitor

    We wire your apps and make everything observable

    We connect the apps your team already uses, through native integrations, Webhooks by Zapier and API steps when needed. We set up alerting so a failed run reaches you before your client, and we use Zapier replay to re-run errored runs without losing data. Where it genuinely helps, we add AI actions inside a Zap to classify or route data. The goal: an automation you see and trust.

  5. Step 5 · Autonomy

    You run your Zaps and your maintenance without us

    The number one goal: you become autonomous. By the end of the program, you know how to design a Zap, build it with dedup and error handling, connect it to your apps, read your logs and replay errored runs. You no longer need an agency to keep your automations running. And if you outgrow Zapier or want to delegate later, we also run a Zapier agency, but that's not the point here.

The proof

Why train 1-on-1 with us.

  • 300+Pros already trained on automation

    More than 300 people have gone through our trainings across France and Europe. Ops teams, marketers, small-business founders. Not vanity numbers: people who stopped copy-pasting between tools and now run their Zaps on their own.

  • 4.7/5Rating across 334 verified reviews

    Average rating of 4.7 out of 5, across 334 reviews. We won't promise it's all magic: you have to build on your real account. But the 1-on-1 format makes the difference on a topic as hands-on as no-code automation.

  • 1:1A dedicated expert, not a class of 100

    You're not a number in a webinar. A trainer opens your real Zapier account, looks at your Zaps, and works through your actual cases. We schedule sessions around your availability, replays included.

FAQ · Zapier training

The questions we get the most.

  • What is a 1-on-1 Zapier training?
    An individual program with a Zapier expert, not a class of 100 people. We open your real account, look at your Zaps, and work through your actual cases: multi-step Zaps, paths, filters, webhooks, Formatter, AI actions. You ask your questions live, the trainer adapts the pace to your level. We schedule sessions around your availability, and you leave with concrete actions every time. That's what makes the difference on a topic as hands-on as no-code automation.
  • How much does the Zapier training cost?
    There is no single price. We connect you with a trainer certified by Hack'celeration, matched to your need and your level. It varies from one trainer to another, based on their profile and the format that fits your project.
  • Zapier or n8n: which one to learn?
    It depends on your need. Zapier is the fastest way to start: a dead-simple interface, thousands of apps connected out of the box, no server to manage. n8n is more technical but often cheaper at high volume and more flexible on branching logic, especially self-hosted. If you want to ship automations fast without the hassle, learn Zapier. If you already know your volume will explode or your logic is complex, n8n makes sense. During the training, we help you decide based on your real case, and we have an n8n training if you want both.
  • Can Zapier be connected to our other tools?
    Yes, and it's one of the big parts of the training. Zapier integrates with thousands of apps, so the answer is almost always yes for the tools your team already uses: CRM, forms, billing, support, spreadsheets, email and Slack. When an app has no native trigger or the native one is too limited, we teach you to use Webhooks by Zapier and custom API requests to connect it cleanly. You leave able to wire your apps so data flows once and stays in sync.
  • Do I need to be technical to take the Zapier training?
    No, not at all. That's the whole point of Zapier: everything happens in a visual interface, without a line of code. The 1-on-1 format starts from your exact level. Complete beginner, we go step by step: your first trigger, your first action, your first multi-step Zap. More comfortable, we jump straight to paths, webhooks, the Formatter and AI actions. If you can use a spreadsheet, you can automate with Zapier, and we're here to take you to the level you're aiming for.
  • What are a multi-step Zap, paths and filters?
    A Zap is a workflow kicked off by a trigger (a new row, a form response, an inbound email) that chains actions. Multi-step means several actions in a row, not just one. Paths branch into different actions based on a condition, and filters stop a Zap when the data doesn't meet a criterion. We teach you to combine them so a single clean Zap replaces ten fragile single-step Zaps nobody can maintain. That's the foundation of an automation that holds.
  • Can we add AI to our Zaps?
    Yes. Zapier offers AI actions and agents that you drop into a Zap to classify a message, summarize text, extract fields or route a request to the right team. In training, we show you where AI genuinely earns its place and where it just adds cost and risk. The rule we teach you: keep a human in the loop on anything with real consequences, and use AI for the sorting work, not for the decisions that commit your business.
  • How do we keep our Zaps from failing silently?
    It's a central part of the training. We teach you to build dedup so records don't double, error paths so a failure is caught instead of swallowed, and to read the logs to see exactly what ran. We set up alerts so you hear about a broken run before your client, and we use Zapier replay to re-run errored runs without losing data. An automation you can't see is an automation you can't trust, so we make yours observable from the start.
  • Is the training online or in person?
    100% online, over video, 1-on-1. You join the sessions from anywhere, we share your screen and your Zapier account live. Sessions are recorded if you want to revisit them. The individual format means real interaction: you're not a number in a webinar of 100, the trainer answers your questions about your setup and your actual Zaps. That's what makes learning concrete on a tool as hands-on as Zapier.
