Reduce manual effort and repetitive administration
Microsoft Power Automate for Workflows & Approvals
Automate approvals, notifications, reminders and repetitive Microsoft 365 workflows using practical, controlled business scenarios.
Course Overview
Business-focused training designed for immediate application.
This course helps teams turn repetitive Microsoft 365 administration into transparent, controlled workflows. Delegates learn to identify worthwhile opportunities, build practical automations and preserve clear ownership, exception handling and human approval instead of automating an unclear process.
Designed and delivered by Streamline Intel consultants with real business experience, the course uses realistic scenarios rather than generic software demonstrations. Content and examples are adapted to delegate capability, roles and organisational priorities.
