How Many People Should Attend Our Power Apps Courses?

Whilst the number of people who attend our private Power Apps courses is essentially up to you and dependant upon the number of learners you have who need to receive the training (up to our eight delegate per course maximum), we encourage all of our clients to keep your class sizes small where possible and recommend a maximum of eight learners for technical courses such as Power Apps. This provides a more personable and effective learning experience for you and allows the trainer to give more individual attention to each and every student.

What is the Teaching Method for Our Power Apps Courses?

The teaching method for our private Power Apps courses is Instructor-led training (ILT), which means that our courses are engaging, immersive, hands-on and interactive, and thereby facilitate more effective learning and information retention. With this participatory learning method your staff will retain information better, whether they are studying Power Apps subjects in-person or via live virtual classroom. And, whilst we are happy to provide lectures, demonstrations and show-and-tells for larger groups (plus drop-in surgeries for ad hoc technical advice and explanation), the instructor-led training approach is by far the most reliable teaching methodology to bring your Power Apps know-how to life in a small class size setting.

How Long are our Power Apps Courses?

Usual teaching hours for our Power Apps courses are 9.30AM to 4.30PM with an hour for lunch and two short breaks morning and afternoon. This timetable is fairly standard across UK training providers and gives six hours of hands-on Power Apps learning, which is an optimal day's training when it comes to comfortably absorbing knowledge, undertaking practice exercises and retaining information.

If you need an earlier or later start time for your course please let us know and we will do our best to accommodate you.

Courses are delivered week days, Monday to Friday during normal business hours.

Notes: Power Apps Terminology in Layman's Terms

1) Data Cards are the building blocks of your Power App. Each card is made up of fields which you can define, shuffle, organise and format. Cards can be fully customised or you can use predefined cards which come with baked-in data types (strings, numbers and so forth). Data Cards provide a highly flexible and powerful way of designing forms in Power Apps.

2) App Logic is essentially a rule-based and validated workflow driven by formulas and (according to Microsoft) can be used to provide data validation for processes such as, "Business process flows, workflows, actions and business rules". There are a number of considerations when it comes to deciding when and if App Logic should be applied to your Power App. For further reading we recommend the Microsoft article Where to place logic: Canvas apps, model-driven apps, Microsoft Dataverse, or Power Automate flows?. Its also worth mentioning that Power Apps is not the only show in town when it comes to logic-driven workflows and the Azure Logic Apps platform might also meet your requirements.

3) Pen Input Controls provide your users with a whiteboard canvas upon which they can write, draw and highlight. A simple use for a pen control, for instance, might be to allow a user to digitally sign an approval. Pen Input controls do come with accessibility considerations and are not usable for keyboard users or screen reader users, so alternative input options should be provided. For a definitive guide to Pen Inputs in Power Apps see the Microsoft article Pen input control in Power Apps.
