Course Overview
Microsoft Power Platform empowers anyone to solve business challenges with low-code tools. This 4-day beginner-friendly workshop gives participants the full Power Platform picture — enabling them to build apps, automate workflows, and visualize data with confidence.
You’ll start with the basics of Power Apps (canvas and model-driven), move on to Power Automate for logic and approvals, and then dive into Power BI for data visualization. Along the way, you’ll connect your apps and dashboards using the Common Data Service (CDS) and work on real-world labs that reinforce each concept.
Perfect for business users, process owners, and analysts, this course offers hands-on guidance in building an integrated, functional Power Platform solution — even without a developer background.
