Additional Information

Build effective applications without being a developer

Today, many companies aim to become more agile without constantly relying on overloaded technical teams. Power Apps enables anyone, even with limited development knowledge, to create useful, intuitive business applications connected to their own data. This training gives you the tools to turn ideas into functional solutions independently.

Creating a canvas app is not just about using the right tools. It’s also about understanding how to organize data, design interfaces, and create a smooth user experience. Through a guided approach, you’ll learn how to turn real-world needs into high-performing digital solutions.

Learn to structure data from the start

Before designing an interface, it’s essential to think about how your data is structured. In this course, you’ll learn how to model information using Microsoft Dataverse or other sources such as Excel or SharePoint. You’ll discover how to connect data to your app, display it clearly, and manipulate it precisely.

This ability to handle data without coding is a major advantage. It saves time and reduces the need for complex languages. You’ll know how to make your applications more dynamic and adaptable to business needs.

Design a clear, user-friendly interface

User experience is central to any successful app. You’ll learn how to organize screens, choose the right controls, add images, apply themes, and adapt the interface for different devices (phones or tablets). These elements are designed to make the app intuitive and pleasant to use.

You’ll also work on navigation between screens and the logic that ensures smooth transitions. These simple but essential concepts, often overlooked, will make a real difference in your final projects.

Publish and evolve your applications

Creating an app is only the beginning. You’ll need to know how to share it with the right users, manage updates, and follow its lifecycle. You’ll learn how to publish a Power Apps application, control access, and keep it up to date in a professional environment.

Thanks to Power Platform tools, you’ll also be able to automate actions (with Power Automate) or add interactive data visualizations (using Power BI). These integrations expand the possibilities and increase the value of your apps within the organization.

A complete project to validate your skills

At the end of the training, you’ll complete a full application project based on a realistic scenario. From a defined need, you’ll structure data, design the interface, connect data sources, and publish your solution. This project helps consolidate your learning and build confidence through hands-on experience.

This guided project format walks you through each step while leaving room to test your ideas. It’s the perfect opportunity to prepare for a real-life deployment in your company.
