Capture. Process. Publish. Faster.

PhotoRobot Academy turns operators, studio managers, network specialists, hardware specialists, and integrators into certified PhotoRobot professionals — online, on-site at PhotoRobot, or in your own studio. Same curriculum, three delivery formats, one verifiable certificate at the end.


How it works

1 — Choose a package

Each role has its own package: Operator Standard (the broadest entry point — 12 modules, ~14 hours), Studio Manager Essentials, Network Specialist Essentials, Hardware Specialist Essentials, Integrator Essentials. Stack a speciality package on top once you’re certified — 3D Modeling, OCR, Virtual Catwalk, Medical, Carpet.

Each package leads to a verifiable PhotoRobot certificate with a 2-year validity window. Refresh exam before expiry to extend.

2 — Pick a delivery format

3 — Enroll

Customers receive a voucher code when purchasing a package through PhotoRobot sales. Each voucher is single-use, per-student, and grants access to:

First-time visitors — try the free placement test (forthcoming) to see which package fits you. Or browse the list of modules to preview the curriculum.


Enrollment — sign in with your voucher

This is a content sketch for the student enrollment UI. In Phase A (preview, no auth), this section explains the flow. In Phase B (v0.6+), it becomes a real CF Access + voucher input form.

The enrollment flow for a paying student looks like this:

  1. You receive a voucher from PhotoRobot sales (email after purchase). The voucher is a code like OP-STD-2026-A8K3F9.
  2. Click the enrollment link in the email (or visit /enroll directly).
  3. Enter your voucher code + your email address. Email becomes your login identity.
  4. Receive a 6-digit code at your email (Cloudflare Access One-Time PIN). Enter it on the next screen.
  5. You’re in. The Academy site now shows your enrolled packages + tracks your module progress + knowledge check scores. Certificate auto-issues when you pass the final exam.

Phase A note (current): The Academy site is currently a public preview. All content is accessible without enrollment. The enrollment + tracking flow described above will be implemented in Phase B (v0.6+) on a separate functional domain. Pricing, voucher issuance, and proctoring are handled by PhotoRobot sales, not on this Academy site.


What you’ll actually do

A typical Operator Standard student’s path:

Day What happens
1 Foundations — System overview, safety, network setup, locator. ~3 hours self-paced or ~½ day in class.
2-3 Daily workflow — Workspace, capture, wizard mode. ~4 hours self-paced or 1 day in class. Hands-on time if equipment available.
4-5 Camera + lighting — Canon config, lighting setup, lighting hardware. ~3 hours self-paced or 1 day in class.
6 Production stage 2 — Editing pipeline + troubleshooting. ~2 hours.
7-8 Practice + certification — Take all module knowledge checks until you score ≥80 % on each. Schedule certification exam.
9-10 Certification exam + certificate delivery.

Self-paced online students typically finish in 2-3 weeks; in-person students in 4-5 days. Pace yourself by your role’s demands at your studio.
