The situation this course is for

Support Advisors at high-growth platforms regularly face a flood of repeat tickets on known issues, bugs that haven’t been escalated, knowledge gaps in self-serve resources, or configuration errors that keep resurfacing. These aren’t one-offs; they’re systemic leaks. The current fix is manual tagging and weekly summaries, but that data often stalls before engineering or product teams act. Without a structured way to bundle, prioritize, and route recurring issues, support remains reactive. This leads to burnout, inaccurate SLA tracking, and missed signals that could prevent broader outages.

After
Running a lean, proactive support workflow where recurring issues are flagged, fixed upstream, and prevented, freeing up time for higher-impact work and recognition.
