Course Overview

About this course

Robotic Process Automation uses software robots to perform rule based tasks inside existing applications, such as copying data between systems, processing forms and generating reports, without changing those systems.

The course covers process discovery and documentation, building workflows in an RPA platform, UI automation and selectors, working with Excel, email and PDFs, variables and control flow, exception handling, orchestration and scheduling, and combining RPA with AI document understanding.

FAQs

Which RPA tool is used?

The course uses a widely used RPA platform with a free community or training edition. Confirm the current tool with the team before your batch.

Is RPA being replaced by AI agents?

The two are increasingly combined. RPA remains useful for dependable rule based steps, while AI handles unstructured information. The course covers how they work together.

Do RPA vendors offer certifications?

Several RPA vendors run their own certification programs, taken independently through the vendor. AIIT Roorkee does not claim any partnership with RPA vendors.

What is the duration and schedule of this course?

Duration, batch timings and format are shared when you enquire, because they depend on whether you choose a short-term, long-term, weekend or training format. Contact the team by phone, WhatsApp or email for current batches.

Is placement assistance available?

Learners can use AIIT Roorkee's placement assistance, which includes career counselling, CV preparation, LinkedIn development, interview preparation and mock interviews. Placement assistance is career preparation support and does not constitute a guarantee of employment or placement.
