Automation Foundations: Power Automate, RPA, and Power Platform Essentials

Course Description

SkillDynamo’s Automation Foundations: Power Automate, RPA, and Power Platform Essentials training develops practical, source-aligned skills in business process automation with Power Automate, RPA, and Power Platform. The course is designed for automation beginners, business analysts, citizen developers, and process-improvement teams who need a clear understanding of the platform, its important features, and its real-world application.

The 56 Hours curriculum is independently rewritten into four structured lessons. Learners progress from foundations and use-case analysis to configuration, implementation, security, governance, troubleshooting, scenario validation, and best-practice review.

The course also strengthens practical decision-making. Learners evaluate requirements, select suitable Microsoft tools and methods, validate results, document evidence, avoid common implementation mistakes, and create an improvement plan for future projects and operational use.
