Training process

Training needs analysis

If you have specific requirements regarding the training programme, we will carry out a training needs analysis for you. This will guide us on which aspects of the programme should receive greater emphasis, so that the training programme meets your specific needs.

What will you gain?

icon

No-code process automation - You will learn how to build flows in Power Automate from scratch and from templates, so you can automate repetitive work tasks faster without depending on a developer.

icon

Confident use of the interface - You will get comfortable with the app layout, template selection, flow editing, and publishing, so you can move from idea to working automation without guessing the next step.

icon

Flow logic design - You will practice conditions, switches, variables, expressions, and loops such as apply to each and do until, so you can build flows that handle different scenarios reliably.

icon

Manual button flows - You will learn how to create button-triggered flows with user inputs and trigger tokens, so you can launch actions from mobile devices exactly when they are needed.

icon

Data and service integration - You will learn how to configure connections, use connectors, data gateways, and local or web data sources, making it easier to link systems without manual data transfers.

icon

Scheduled and recurring automation - You will master scheduled flows and recurring processes for collecting and validating data, so you can automate tasks performed daily, weekly, or at regular intervals.

icon

Better flow management - You will learn how to review run history, export and import flows, share them, and keep them maintained, so you can troubleshoot issues and develop solutions with more control.

icon

Real Microsoft ecosystem use cases - You will see how to use Power Automate with Teams, SharePoint Online, Power Apps, and content posting to X, helping you implement automation in tools you already use every day.

Training programme

1. Discussion of the basics of how the Power Automate tool works

Power Automate is introduced through its service model, core functions, and the practical reasons organizations use flows in daily work. The section also familiarizes participants with the interface, so later topics such as design, execution, and integration are grounded in the tool’s basic operation.

  • description of the service and its functions,
  • benefits of using flows,
  • program interface.

2. Comprehensive guide to the workflow creation process

Creating a workflow in Power Automate involves more than assembling actions, because the trigger, editing choices, and publication model affect how the solution behaves. This section walks through templates, trigger and action selection, event definition, publication, and ongoing workflow management.

  • using a ready-made template,
  • selecting a template,
  • editing the workflow,
  • triggers and actions,
  • defining the event that starts the workflow,
  • defining actions,
  • publication,
  • workflow management.

3. Explanation of how to design and implement automation logic

Designing automation logic begins with defining the objective and translating it into controllable execution paths. The material covers conditions, switches, variables, expressions, ranges, loops such as apply to each and do until, and the way these elements shape the end of a flow.

  • defining the goal,
  • flow conditions,
  • switches,
  • variables,
  • expressions,
  • zares,
  • apply to each,
  • do until,
  • end of the flow.

4. Description of flows manually launched by the user using buttons

Button-triggered flows are designed for cases where a user decides when automation should start. The section covers app access and management, building a button flow, using trigger tokens and user input, and sharing these flows so others can execute the same manual process.

  • downloading and managing the application,
  • creating a button flow,
  • button flows with trigger tokens,
  • button flows with user input data,
  • sharing button flows.

5. Guide to flows that are launched according to a specified schedule

When a process must run at fixed intervals, scheduled flows provide a predictable execution model. This part explains how to prepare data inside the flow, define actions, launch the automation according to a timetable, and work with lists of items processed during each cycle.

  • data in the flow,
  • defining actions,
  • inauguration of the flow based on a schedule,
  • list of elements.

6. Discussion of different types of flows in Power Automate

Different flow types address different process patterns, from structured approvals to repeated data handling. Attention is given to business process flows with branching and user roles, recurring flows for collection and validation, and team flows that support coordinated work across users.

  • business process flows:
    • process standardization,
    • branching,
    • user roles,
    • decision approval – structure,
  • recurring flows:
    • data collection,
    • data correctness – verification,
    • flow cycle – interruption,
  • team flows.

7. Instructions for configuring connections to various data sources

Connecting data sources determines what a flow can read, update, and orchestrate across systems. The section explains standard and premium connectors, connection management, data gateways, web-based sources, and methods for using local data securely within Power Automate scenarios.

  • available connectors,
  • premium class connectors,
  • connection management,
  • data gateways,
  • data from the Web,
  • use of local data.

8. Explanation of how to manage flows

Once flows are running, they need operational control, traceability, and a way to be reused across environments. This section covers flow history, sharing in local network scenarios, export and import procedures, and the maintenance tasks required to keep automations stable over time.

  • flow history overview,
  • flow on the local network – sharing,
  • export and import,
  • maintaining the flow.

9. Description of the functionality of the mobile application

The mobile application is covered from first access to everyday use in managing automation on the go. It includes downloading the app, signing in, building flows from a handheld device, and navigating available channels to launch or monitor selected processes outside the desktop environment.

  • downloading,
  • logging in,
  • building flows,
  • channels.

10. Demonstration of how to configure flows automating content publication on Twitter (X)

Publishing content to Twitter (X) is used as a concrete example of configuring an end-to-end cloud flow. Participants see how to connect the service, define the trigger and posting action, and structure a simple automation that sends prepared content to a social channel.

11. Examples of using Power Automate in Microsoft Teams

Working in Microsoft Teams often requires automations that fit team communication and everyday collaboration. This part shows how the Power Automate app for Teams is used to create and run flows in context, linking messages, channels, and team activities with automated actions.

  • Power Automate app for Teams.

12. Practical applications of integration with SharePoint Online

SharePoint Online serves here as a practical environment for automation based on lists, documents, and collaboration data. The focus is on typical integration scenarios in which flows react to changes, move information between services, and support routine operations around stored content.

13. Explanation of cooperation between PowerApps and Power Automate

PowerApps and Power Automate are presented here as complementary components used to implement business logic across forms, actions, and process steps. The section explains how app interactions can trigger flows and how automation supports logic that would be difficult to maintain directly in the app.

  • designing business logic.

What are the prerequisites for participating in the training?

icon

Basic Windows skills - You should be comfortable using Windows, working in a web browser, and handling online apps, so you can focus on automation itself rather than on navigating the environment.

icon

Familiarity with Microsoft 365 - You should know the basics of Microsoft 365 tools, especially Teams, SharePoint Online, and data entry forms, because the training uses automation scenarios built on them.

icon

Understanding office processes - You should be able to describe a simple business process step by step, identify its trigger and expected result, so you can design flow logic and conditions correctly.

icon

Basic data handling - You should understand what lists, records, fields, and values mean in forms or tables, because during the training you will pass data between actions and connected sources.
