I fixed this in the past by wrapping the call to notify() in the try catch:

try {
    $variableToCatch = $YourModel->notify(new ConfirmedCourse($data));
} catch (\Exception $e) {
    // Do what you want here... 
    // Log::error('nexmo failed...');
    // echo 'Caught exception: ',  $e->getMessage(), "\n";
    // Log::error($e->getMessage());
    // dd($e->getMessage())
}

If you post the line where you are calling notify() I can update to your use exact needed statement.

Remove the try catch from ConfirmedCourse class and put it around the call in the method calling it.

Here is how I handled a slack notification failure:

try {
    $slackNotification = $user->notify(new SlackNotification($slackData));
} catch (\Exception $e) {
    Log::error('slack notification failed.');
}
