This course is intended for
The ideal audience for the RPA and UiPath Boot Camp is beginners in the field of
RPA and individuals in roles such as developers, project managers, operation
analysts, and tech enthusiasts looking to familiarize themselves with automation
technologies. It's also perfectly suited for business professionals keen on
understanding and implementing automated solutions within their organizations to
optimize processes.
Overview
This 'skills-centric' course is about 50% hands-on lab and 50% lecture, with
extensive practical exercises designed to reinforce fundamental skills, concepts
and best practices taught throughout the course. Working in a hands-on learning
environment, led by our Automation Learning expert instructor, students will
explore:
Gain a thorough understanding of Robotic Process Automation (RPA) and its
applications using UiPath, setting a solid foundation for future learning and
application.
Learn to record and play in UiPath Studio, a key skill that enables automating
complex tasks in a user-friendly environment.
Master the art of designing and controlling workflows using Sequencing,
Flowcharting, and Control Flow, helping to streamline and manage automation
processes effectively.
Acquire practical skills in data manipulation, from variable management to
CSV/Excel and data table conversions, empowering you to handle data-rich tasks
with confidence.
Develop competence in managing controls and exploring various plugins and
extensions, providing a broader toolkit for handling diverse automation
projects.
Get hands-on experience with exception handling, debugging, logging, code
management, and bot deployment, fundamental skills that ensure your automated
processes are reliable and efficient.
How to deploy and control Bots with UiPath Orchestrator
The Hands-on Natural Language Processing (NLP) Boot Camp is an immersive,
three-day course that serves as your guide to building machines that can read
and interpret human language. NLP is a unique interdisciplinary field, blending
computational linguistics with artificial intelligence to help machines
understand, interpret, and generate human language. In an increasingly
data-driven world, NLP skills provide a competitive edge, enabling the
development of sophisticated projects such as voice assistants, text analyzers,
chatbots, and so much more. Our comprehensive curriculum covers a broad spectrum
of NLP topics. Beginning with an introduction to NLP and feature extraction, the
course moves to the hands-on development of text classifiers, exploration of web
scraping and APIs, before delving into topic modeling, vector representations,
text manipulation, and sentiment analysis. Half of your time is dedicated to
hands-on labs, where you'll experience the practical application of your
knowledge, from creating pipelines and text classifiers to web scraping and
analyzing sentiment. These labs serve as a microcosm of real-world scenarios,
equipping you with the skills to efficiently process and analyze text data. Time
permitting, you?ll also explore modern tools like Python libraries, the OpenAI
GPT-3 API, and TensorFlow, using them in a series of engaging exercises. By the
end of the course, you'll have a well-rounded understanding of NLP, and will
leave equipped with the practical skills and insights that you can immediately
put to use, helping your organization gain valuable insights from text data,
streamline business processes, and improve user interactions with automated
text-based systems. You?ll be able to process and analyze text data effectively,
implement advanced text representations, apply machine learning algorithms for
text data, and build simple chatbots.
