Course Detail()

UiPath Installation:
To optimize the learning experience, all participants are required to be equipped with a window laptop, pre-installed with UiPath software.

Programme Objective

This course is intended to introduce Robotic Process Automation (RPA) through a series of hands-on activities using the UiPath software. Discussion points will include if RPA is the correct solution for your automation needs, and if so, what to consider when implementing it. Participants will create their own RPA projects for real-world tasks to gain insight to the adoption process and potential of the technology.

Please note that UiPath (like all leading RPA software currently) is a Windows-only software. If at all possible, we highly recommend you install it and follow along with the activities, but it’s possible to just watch and learn from the demonstrations alone.

Training Methodology

Our curriculum is designed by trained MOE teachers with classroom teaching experience, who are also programmers with experience developing apps for startups and MNCs. We aim to adapt the best teaching materials available from all over the world, while supplementing them with best practices from our industry experience, to create the most effective courses for learners of all levels. In our classes, learners will be carefully guided through the basic concepts, before being challenged to apply these concepts. For these courses, it helps that our teachers possess a wealth of experience teaching, and many more hours of hands-on experience.

Closing Date for Registration
