RPA and UiPath Boot Camp / Hands-On Robotic Process Automation (TTAI4000)

 

Course Overview

Robotic Process Automation (RPA) is a revolutionary technology that enables businesses to automate routine, repetitive tasks, freeing human resources to focus on more creative, value-added functions. By learning and implementing RPA in your organization, you can increase efficiency, reduce errors, and maximize productivity. The course primarily utilizes UiPath, an industry-leading RPA tool, with its powerful capabilities to create and manage bots, helping you spearhead transformative projects in your organization.

The RPA Boot Camp is a three-day, hands-on course that dives deep into RPA's core concepts, techniques, and the use of UiPath. By actively participating in engaging lectures, hands-on labs, and group discussions, you’ll gain a robust understanding of Robotic Process Automation, Recording and Play, Sequencing, Flowcharting, and Control Flow, Data Manipulation, Managing Controls, Utilizing Plugins and Extensions, Handling User Events and Assistant Bots, Exception Handling, Debugging, and Logging, and finally, Code Management and Bot Deployment.

Guided by our expert instructor, you’ll gain hands-on experience learning how to automate business processes using UiPath, and how to apply this directly to your role in improving organizational efficiency. You’ll also learn how to manage and manipulate data effectively, and become adept at handling exceptions, debugging, and logging, which are key competencies for any developer to maintain and enhance the robustness and reliability of automated workflows. The labs also provide opportunities to manipulate data, manage controls, and explore different plugins and extensions.

By the end of the course, you’ll have a comprehensive understanding of Robotic Process Automation and its implementation using UiPath, and have the confidence to apply these skills on the job. You’ll be equipped with the knowledge and practical skills to automate business processes, manage data effectively, handle exceptions, debug and log activities, manage and maintain code, and deploy bots.
