This Power Automate and Power Apps training course teaches attendees how to leverage the powerful features of both tools to build Microsoft Power Platform applications and automations that maximize your team’s productivity in Microsoft 365. 

The Power Automate modules in this course teach attendees how to create automated flows, scheduled flows, and button flows in a no-code environment. Students learn how to create automated workflows between their favorite apps and services to synchronize files, receive notifications, collect data, and more. Attendees then take their Power Automate skills to the next level to create more advanced approval workflows, build a workflow from scratch, and gain a deeper understanding of Triggers, Variables, and Expressions.

The Power Apps topics teach attendees how to create custom apps in the cloud to automate business processes. Students learn how to create canvas apps using templates, apps from SharePoint, and more in a low-code environment. Throughout the class, attendees get real-world, hands-on practice creating and editing several small apps and adding Power Automate flows to those apps. Attendees then go beyond the basics and build more sophisticated custom apps in a low-code environment.

Note: This 4-day course combines our 2-day Comprehensive Power Automate and Comprehensive Power Apps courses.
