Nine short modules: what automation is, the pieces, loops, Power Automate, Copilot Studio agents, then build, break and test. Around two hours, at your own pace.

Nothing magical. Take a job someone does the same way every time, break it into steps, decide what starts it, and hand the steps to software. The human stops doing the routine and starts checking it.
Written once. Runs every day. A person checks the output, not the process.
Good candidates are repetitive, rule-based and frequent. Bad ones need judgement, happen once, or change every time.
Tap each one. Once you can name these in a flow someone else built, you can read almost any automation.
Pick a block to see what it does and where you'd meet it.
A loop takes a list and runs the steps inside it for each item. Each pass is one iteration. Step through this one by hand and watch the counter, the current item and the variables change.
Microsoft's automation tool inside Microsoft 365. It connects to Outlook, Teams, SharePoint, Dataverse and hundreds of outside systems. Tap the parts of this flow to see what each one is.
Tap any step on the left.
A flow runs steps. An agent reads a message, works out what's wanted, and either answers from what it knows or calls a flow (a tool) to do something. We build them in Copilot Studio.
Bigger systems use a parent agent that reads the request and routes it to a specialist child agent. Read each message and pick the child it should go to.
Pick a job, add pieces in the order they should happen, then run it with sample data. The checker tells you what's missing or out of place.
Most of the job is reading a flow and seeing why it misbehaved. Each card is a real kind of mistake. Pick the fix.
Twelve questions. There's no timer. Get 10 or more and you're ready to shadow a real flow.
Mostly Microsoft Power Automate terms, since that's where most of the work lives. Other tools use different names for the same ideas.
