Agentic automation and client-facing systems, deployed.

Canonical URL: <https://vdci.edu/courses/operations-client-management-portfolio-development>

## Overview

Operations & Client Management Portfolio Development is the capstone build lab. You deploy an operations and automation hub built around agentic workflows: multi-step processes that run on a schedule or a trigger, carry out internal tasks, and escalate to a human when something needs judgment. Designing these well is mostly about deciding what an agent should do unattended and what it should never do, which the course treats as a first-class design question.

The second application is a client operations and practice-management system covering scheduling, billing, client communication, and a client-facing portal. Because outside users touch it, it has to be reliable and secure in ways an internal tool does not, so authentication, permissions, and graceful failure get real attention. You finish the program with a portfolio of deployed applications spanning productivity, knowledge, revenue, finance, and operations.
