Mastering Microsoft Power Automate Training

Mastering Power Automate is a 3-day advanced training class designed for students who are ready to move their Power Automate skills with cloud flows to the next level. Students will cover topics necessary for building more complex flows as well as look at best practices for creating and maintaining cloud flows.

Please note - Under the umbrella term of Power Automate, Microsoft include three- types of processes: Cloud Flows, Business Process Flows and Desktop flows (also known as Power Automate RPA). This course exclusively looks at Power Automate cloud flows (the product previously known as Microsoft Flow) and uses generic Office 365 data sources (i.e. not Dataverse) for examples.

For training on Business process flows (and the associated Dataverse environment that they exist in, please refer to course Mastering Power Platform Dataverse and Model-Driven Apps (QAMPMOD).

For training in Desktop flows, please refer to course Microsoft Power Automate RPA Developer.

Due to the dynamic nature of updates to Office 365 functionality by Microsoft, elements of the syllabus of this course can be subject to change without notice.

Before attending this course, learners should have:

A general knowledge of using Office 365
Some experience of basic SharePoint administration
Attended QA’s Power Automate Essentials course, or have equivalent knowledge
Some additional experience creating flows
Some knowledge of JSON would also be useful, but is not essential

Please Note: If you attend a course and do not meet the prerequisites you may be asked to leave.

Instructors will demonstrate features throughout the event. Optional Lab exercises are available for students to complete within a delegate created free trial tenancy. Microsoft may require a valid credit card to create 30 day free tenancies which must be cancelled within 30 days to avoid incurring charges. QA have no control over the Microsoft 365 trial tenancy signup or billing process.
