Intro to RPA with UiPath
In this course, you will learn about RPA using UiPath, specifically how to use UiPath Studio to develop automation solutions. You’ll first get a deep dive into Studio and how to use activities to program the robot to mimic actions. You’ll understand how data is stored and passed between applications and actions while understanding the logical flow of execution of the actions. Finally, you’ll learn about selectors, which are the heart of user interface identification and automation and how the robots use them to work within UI applications to successfully identify where to enter or extract data and actions.
UiPath Advanced Automation Techniques and Design
In this course, you’ll cover more advanced automation techniques to make you confident automating various software, web applications, and beyond. You'll learn how to extract, manipulate, and insert data within Excel and PDF documents, and about the recording options in Studio to assist you in quickly building automation projects. In addition, you’ll learn how to implement debugging techniques to ensure your code is free from errors and runs end to end. And finally, you’ll be introduced to UiPath Orchestrator, a web based management tool, so you can manage your projects and use the developer functionalities to make your projects robust and scalable.
RPA Team Best Practices
This course will give you the tools you need to handle unexpected challenges with consistent and successful methods. First, you’ll understand how to identify and handle common challenges with RPA projects. Then, you’ll learn the best way to design solutions and have clean, organized project solutions. You’ll learn standard best practices to ensure you consider the most important aspects to well written code in Studio. Next, you’ll cover an advanced topic, the Robotic Enterprise Framework, which is necessary for production level projects. Finally, you’ll understand how RPA teams work together, how automation is an end-to-end process, and how it relates to AI and other technologies, as well as how to learn more and connect with the RPA community.

PROGRAM OVERVIEW - WHY SHOULD I TAKE THIS PROGRAM?
Why should I enroll?
Technology is facing a tipping point and Robotic Process Automation (RPA) is the catalyst. Over 60% of all positions for information workers spend over 30% of their time doing rote, automatable tasks, and business are looking to leverage RPA to free up employees to focus on more strategic work. That's why RPA is the fastest-growing segment of the enterprise software market, and why UiPath was the fastest growing technology company in 2019.
The RPA Developer Nanodegree program was designed with UiPath to train professionals to be able to support companies in their adoption of RPA tools and best practices. Students will learn the skills that enable automation processes, master specific automation techniques for the most commonly used applications like Excel, email, and PDFs, and work within the UiPath platform to implement RPA best practices and enable more advanced automation processes. By becoming an RPA Developer today, you'll have the skills companies need as the RPA field continues to expand in the coming years.What jobs will this program prepare me for?
The RPA Developer Nanodegree program prepares students with the comprehensive knowledge and professional-level skills you will need to develop and deploy business process automations. Those skills will be useful in a variety of roles across many industries, especially Finance, Healthcare, Insurance, Consulting, Manufacturing, Telecommunications, and beyond. Some specific roles include:- RPA Developer
- Business Analyst
- Business Intelligence Developer
- Project Managers
- RPA Architect
