Introduction

Explore the future of work through Robotic Process Automation (RPA) training, a transformative opportunity spanning various industries, from finance and healthcare to manufacturing, retail, and telecommunications. RPA holds the potential to revolutionize these sectors by automating repetitive tasks, enhancing operational efficiency, minimising errors, and liberating human resources for strategic, value-driven pursuits. This course immerses learners in the realm of automation, equipping them with the proficiency to conceive, develop, and implement solutions that elevate productivity and eliminate mundane routines. As learners master RPA, they not only advance their skills but also position themselves as highly sought-after professionals in the rapidly expanding RPA landscape.

Tailored around UiPath, this introductory RPA training is ideal for individuals venturing into the world of robotic process automation with no prior experience. This encompasses professionals from diverse backgrounds, including business, software development, and analysis, as well as those simply curious about RPA fundamentals and the skills required to create automation workflows using UiPath. The course is thoughtfully designed to demystify intricate concepts, providing learners with a solid foundation to embrace the ever-evolving work landscape brimming with promising opportunities.

Upon successful completion of the course, learners will be awarded an "NTU Certificate of Completion".

First, we start by introducing UiPath and its importance in automating repetitive tasks and making business processes smoother. Next, learners will learn about variables and arguments, understanding how to use them to store data and transfer it between different parts of the process. The course also includes control flow activities, allowing learners to create smart automation processes using if-else conditions and loops. Finally, learners will discover User Interface (UI) Automation, gaining the skills to interact with web and desktop applications, scraping screens, filling forms, and extracting important data. This will empower them to build complete automation solutions that enhance their work efficiency and productivity.

At the end of the course, learners will be able to:

  • Create and configure variables in an automation project.
  • Configure the most common control flow statements according to their specifications.
  • Build user interface automation projects.
  • Employ the correct UI automation input methods based on automation requirements.
  • Employ the correct UI automation output methods based on automation requirements.
  • Create or supplement the automation project by using the built-in automation recorder.
Anyone interested in understanding the basics of Robotic Process Automation (RPA) and its potential applications should attend this RPA introductory training. This training is suitable for business professionals, process owners, managers, software developers, and individuals seeking to explore the benefits of automation in their respective industries.
