QA / Automation training — learn your way, pay what you think it’s worth

I’ve been in QA for ~15 years (manual testing, automation, SDET roles) and have spent a lot of time doing corporate training for testing/automation teams.

I’m now thinking of doing something more personal:

1:1 / small mentoring sessions for people trying to break into QA or move into automation.

No big course. Just practical, real-world help.

Possible topics:

Getting into QA (career switchers)

Automation testing (Selenium / Playwright / API testing)

Real framework design (what companies actually expect)

CI/CD basics for testers

AI in testing (GenAI use cases, test generation, debugging, data creation)

Early agentic AI workflows in QA

I’m not trying to build a “course business” right now.

I’d rather:

Start with a few free intro sessions

Understand what people actually struggle with

Then continue in a pay-per-session, pay-what-you-feel-it’s-worth way

No pressure, no packages.

So I’m genuinely curious:

👉 What would actually help you most right now in QA/automation?

👉 Is AI in testing useful in your world or still hype?

👉 What’s missing in most QA learning content out there?
