Our Microsoft Power Platform Training consists of three modules: Power BI, PowerApps, and Power Automate.

  • Power BI offers true Self-Service BI, enabling business users to interact with corporate information and to extract the reports and intel they need.
  • Microsoft Power Automate enables organizations to develop zero-code, customized business applications easily and rapidly. Users can choose from a wide variety of automation templates or create flows from scratch.
  • Microsoft PowerApps is a technology which enables both developers and business users to build line of business (LOB) applications, with little or no coding, which can connect to a wide range of data sources.

This one-week, intensive course provides a thorough introduction to the Microsoft Power Platform and is aimed at general business users. Delegates will learn how to use the Power Platform to gain insights from their data and to use these insights to automate their business processes.

If you have several staff members that need to complete this training, we can arrange a private instructor-led online training course tailored to the requirements of your organisation. Each person is given remote access to a computer in our training centre and provided with lots of opportunities to practice all of the techniques being taught remotely. This means that your staff can attend a course either in the office or from home.
