Introduction
Robotic Process Automation (RPA) allows the enterprise to configure computer software, or a “robot” to emulate and integrate the actions of a human interacting within digital systems to execute a business process. RPA robots utilize the user interface to capture data and manipulate applications just like humans do. They interpret, trigger responses and communicate with other systems in order to perform on a vast variety of repetitive tasks.
In contrast to traditional IT solutions, RPA allows organizations to automate at a fraction of the cost and time previously encountered. RPA is also non-intrusive in nature and leverages the existing infrastructure without causing disruption to underlying systems, which would be difficult and costly to replace.
RPA elevates the nature of work by removing people from dull, repetitive and large volume tasks which frees them to focus on high value activities. This is critical in Singapore where the labour market is extremely tight for talent.
Just as industrial robots changed the landscape of the manufacturing industry by creating higher production rates and improved quality, RPA “robots” will do the same for today’s business by digitally transforming the way we manage business processes, IT support processes, workflow processes and back-office work.
Artificial intelligence (AI) can be used together with RPA to enable a wider scope of automation script to include semi-structured and unstructured data.
At the end of the course, participants will have:
• Working knowledge of Robotic Process Automation
• Be Able Put Together basic RPA Recordings
Participants will spend the first half of the course understanding the different types of digital automation and the impact to business. The course will also cover a number of use cases and how Process Automation has changed the business landscape. We will cover what to look for when considering various forms of digital automation like Robotic Process Automation, Intelligent Process Automation and Business Process Automation. The course will also cover the benefits of Process Automation.
The second half of the course will teach participants how to develop Robotic Process Automation using Gleematic. Participants will go through intensive hands-on exercises that will teach them what to look for and avoid when developing automation scripts.
The course will use a blended mix of lectures, case study discussions, quizzes and hands-on exercises.
This course is suitable for:
Operations managers and above who has operational responsibilities and are looking for solutions to automate their existing business processes.
Criteria:
• Participants should be familiar with office suites like Microsoft Excel, Word and other desktop applications.
• Participants are required to bring along a laptop to class.
