Implementing Robotic Process Automation (RPA) in Organizations from Pluralsight

Organizations are struggling to implement RPA beyond automating basic tasks – leaving a lot of the potential value of RPA on the table. This course will teach you to successfully implement and get the maximum value out of RPA in your organization.

Robotic Process Automation holds great promise as a technology that can facilitate the digital transformation of organizations. However, organizations often struggle to move beyond easy wins and see diminishing returns in large-scale implementations. In this course, Implementing Robotic Process Automation (RPA) in Organizations, you'll learn to scale RPA beyond basic implementations successfully. First, you'll learn to identify and mitigate common risks in RPA implementations. Next, you'll learn about the best practices of RPA implementation. Finally, we'll focus on practical matters like sourcing strategies and tool selection. When you finish this course, you'll have the skills and knowledge needed to successfully implement RPA within your organization.
