Why Power Automate?

The Microsoft RPA tool already running in most enterprises.

Power Automate plugs into the Microsoft 365 stack the team already uses. Same look and feel, no new ecosystem to learn. This subject takes a complete beginner from the online Power Automate product through to building advanced flows in Power Automate Desktop, with skills that get applied the same week.

Beginner to advanced flows in three courses

Open Power Automate for the first time in week one. Build advanced Power Automate Desktop flows by the end. No prior automation experience required.

Both online and desktop covered

Course 1 gets you started in online Power Automate. Courses 2 and 3 take you into Power Automate Desktop, where most serious finance and back-office automations actually live.

Built around real business processes

Every flow lands in a finance or consulting context. Skills practised on the kind of repetitive work analysts already wish they could automate.

Credentials that stand up

Every milestone is independently accredited by CPD, CPE and NASBA, so what learners earn here counts towards continuing professional development.

Learning Outcomes

What learners will be able to do by the end of the program.

Every outcome is mapped to a specific lesson and assessed through scenario-based exercises. Learners walk away with practical Power Automate flows they can apply to their own repetitive business processes.

Get started in online Power Automate

The basics of the online product, the same Microsoft look and feel as Office, plus how to create your first flows that automate routine business tasks.

Build flows in Power Automate Desktop

Move beyond the online product into Power Automate Desktop. Build flows that automate a wide range of business processes that touch the local machine and desktop applications.

Speed up real business processes

Apply automation to the repetitive work the team already wants gone. Faster cycle times, fewer errors, and time freed for higher-value work.

Use advanced Power Automate features

Conditional logic, error handling, looping, complex data manipulation. The advanced features needed to build flows that hold up under real conditions.

Develop more complex flows with confidence

Combine the techniques into multi-step flows that integrate across Microsoft 365 and the desktop. The level needed for production-grade automation.
