Softomotive, a leader in robotic process automation solutions, is pleased to announce a refreshed and enlarged RPA Academy. This is a state-of-the-art online learning portal offering comprehensive training in Softomotive’s RPA solutions.  It makes it easy for students to join, learn and develop their RPA skills in a fast-moving market where such capabilities are in great demand by current and future employers. It is available athttp://academy.softomotive.com.

The Softomotive Academy is designed to improve the employability quotient of professionals and developers. It provides them with the opportunity to develop and deepen their RPA-focused skills which are in short supply at present as enterprises seek to accelerate their digitization efforts and improve productivity.

The e-learning platform provides everyone, including partners and customers, with an intuitive web-based interface that is accessible from any device (including mobile). Once logged in, learners can discover a rich catalogue of video-based tutorials that support on-demand and self-paced learning on Attended and Unattended Automation.

The Softomotive Academy features two different learning paths leading to either Certificates and Diplomas. Upon the successful completion of individual courses, learners will be awarded a Certificate which they can use to advance their careers. Professionals and developers that complete a structured learning program or have practical real-world experience of WinAutomation or ProcessRobot can earn a Diploma by passing a rigorous exam that proves their ability to develop effective and process automations.

“The relaunch of the enlarged Softomotive Academy supports our People ^1st  approach for RPA which is a new way to deploy RPA and helps to make the democratization of RPA a reality,” says Argyris Kaninis, Co-founder and Chief Operations Officer for Softomotive. “By giving our user community the depth and breadth of knowledge to fully leverage WinAutomation and ProcessRobot, we equip professionals and organizations to accelerate process automation discovery and development.”

The RPA Academy offers detailed, yet easy-to-follow individual courses helping learners to master RPA skills covering attended and unattended automation. Training ranges from a solid foundation on Robotic Desktop Automation (RDA) and enterprise RPA, to the development of complex process automation via scripting, and the advanced management and monitoring of software robots.

Each course consists of short online videos and rich documentation organized into sections. Each section concludes with an interactive quiz, which tests users’ knowledge and skills in RPA. Learners can watch RPA courses at any time tailored for specific roles, or can fully customize their learning experience based on their personal learning objectives.

The curriculum of the Softomotive Academy will be continuously updated, based on learners’ feedback and new product features being added, including new Attended and Unattended Automation content. 

The online training site makes it easy to train employees in any organization, without the time and expense involved in face-to-face training. It helps teach the skills needed to implement RPA effectively in a company and to build a solid platform for future personal success while being a member of a rapidly growing global community of RPA professionals.
