Automation with Intelligent Tools

Automation with Intelligent Tools (14 hrs)

Course Code: TGS-2023021096 | SSG Funded

*Classroom-based Learning*

Robotic Process Automation (RPA) has emerged as a powerful tool for automating repetitive tasks and optimising business processes. In this course, you will delve into the world of RPA using UiPath, a leading RPA platform. You will learn how to design, develop, and deploy RPA solutions to optimise business processes and drive digital transformation.

The course will start with an introduction to RPA and its business drivers, including an overview of Intelligent Process Automation (IPA), cognitive RPA, and artificial intelligence (AI). You will explore the main application areas of RPA and understand how it can significantly impact industries. You will learn how to create automation applications using UiPath Studio and develop virtual workers for data manipulation, analysis, and data processing tasks.

Throughout the course, you will engage in hands-on exercises, case studies, and practical activities to apply the concepts learned and gain real-world experience in designing and implementing RPA solutions using UiPath. By the end of the course, you will be equipped with the skills and knowledge to effectively use UiPath for RPA and contribute to the automation initiatives in your organisation, driving efficiency, productivity, and innovation.

Participants who fulfil all requirements will receive a Statement of Attainment (SOA) issued by SkillsFuture Singapore (SSG).
