About this course
ServiceNow Workflow Automation gives beginners a practical introduction to the platform behind service and employee workflows.

The course is useful for learners who want workflow automation basics before deeper ITSM, admin, developer, or certification training. Competitor programs often focus on broad catalogs, ITSM roles, or advanced topics. This course keeps the first step clear by showing how information, people, requests, and automation connect inside ServiceNow.
