Replaced null on line 14 above with {} and it works as expected now.

I've gotten close with this code:

a!forEach(
    items: enumerate(4),
    expression: a!localVariables(
      local!week: fv!index,
      local!periods: a!forEach(
        items: local!events,
        expression: {
          if(
            fv!item.week = local!week,
            a!map(
              period: fv!item.period,
              hours: fv!item.hours
            ),
            null
          )
        }
      ),
      {
        a!map(week: fv!index, periods: local!periods)
      }
    )
  )

However its adding an entry for each null in the else condition:

[week:1,periods:[period:1,hours:2]; [period:5,hours:3]; ; ; ; ]; [week:2,periods:; ; [period:2,hours:5]; [period:6,hours:8]; ; ]; [week:3,periods:; ; ; ; [period:12,hours:4]; ]; [week:4,periods:; ; ; ; ; [period:3,hours:2]]

I am trying to use foreach in the following way with contains:

a!forEach(
    items: local!events,
    expression: {
      if(
        or(
          a!isNullOrEmpty(local!result),
          not(contains(local!result["week"], fv!item.week))
        ),
        append(local!result, a!map(week: fv!item.week, periods: { a!map(period: fv!item.period, hours: fv!item.total_hours)})),
        false
      )
    }
  )

However, it does not appear that the "contains" method is properly identifiying that a week record has already been added to my result.
