With the modules labeled A-D, you have built the perfect foundation for your automation initiative. Now, get to know individual topics better through our various, specialized Tech Intros! Each Tech Intro covers a new, exciting topic to broaden your knowledge in the world of automation. The respective Tech Intros are accompanied by different trainers, each of whom is an expert in their field. These modules give you a better understanding of how each technology works and serve as a foundation to solve the cases in our Automation Builder track.
We do not facilitate learning journeys that aim at all the technologies at the same time. If you are interested to have a learning journey facilitated in depth for one specific technology (e.g. RPA), check out our Citizen Developer Program or reach out to us for a tailor-made solution.
We have currently 5 Tech Intros available, each of them takes 1-2 hours of learning time:
E1: Process Mining
✔️ Basics of Process Mining
✔️ Concepts of data-based process visualization
✔️ Process discovery basics and analysis building
E2: RPA (Robotic Process Automation)
✔️ Basics & benefits of RPA
✔️ Deep Dive: RPA implementations
✔️ RPA myths
✔️ Tool Introduction: UiPath
E3: IPaaS (Integrational Platform as a Service)
✔️ Basic principles and most important tools
✔️ Advantages and disadvantages compared to other automation solutions
✔️ Tool Introduction: Make (formerly: Integromat).
E4: No Code/Low Code
✔️ Introduction: Microsoft Power Automate
✔️ Main components: Microsoft Power Platform
✔️ Hands On: Create a Power App
✔️ Integrate Power Automate to Power Apps
E5: Artificial Intelligence (AI)
✔️ Basics of AI
✔️ Realistic capabilities and possibilities of AI
✔️ AI and Process Automation
E6: Conversational AI
✔️ Basics of Conversational AI and Chatbots
✔️ Conversational Design and User Experience
✔️ Example Uses and approaches to Conversational AI
The goal of the Technology Intros is to get an overview of what the different technologies contain and how they work. You can choose to only learn about certain technologies that are relevant to you or look at all of them if you want the full picture. As this is just a first dip into the ocean of automation technologies, there is no certificate available for these modules. Each technology provider (eg. Microsoft or UiPath) usually host their own certificates.
All our trainers are experts in their field. They are not "just" consultants, but breathe and live automation in their daily work. We work with experts from SAP, adidas, Bilfinger, Deloitte, Wacker and many others to provide you with first-hand knowledge and relevant practical experience.
At the moment, we do not offer individual packages. But we encourage you to talk to your manager, teammates, or L&D department to find like-minded people. If you are a group of interested automation learners, contact us. In some cases, we can provide learning trips for as few as 3-4 people. Let's find out!
A facilitated learning journey includes a set-up phase where we jointly define the relevant learning objectives, schedule and delivery. After the set-up phase, we support and guide the learners through the academy content and accompany this with several live sessions. This way, the learning group is fully guided and knows exactly what to do and where to ask questions. At the end, we also collect feedback and do a retrospective. Facilitating a learning journey can take varying amounts of time, but experience shows that most learning journeys last between 4 and 12 weeks.
We believe in some core values at Bots & People that are also reflected within our Academy:
Our Automation Academy is an online learning solution. We have 50+ modules, all purely focused on automation topics, available in English and German. Each module contains a combination of input and interaction. You’ll find learning videos, audios, interactive graphics, quizzes and much more.
Please get in touch and contact us. We’ll provide you with all necessary information.
