Introduction to Microsoft Power Platform Training (PL-900)

Professionals regularly hear about Power Platform, Power BI, Power Apps and Power Automate without clearly understanding how these tools fit together or what they can concretely bring to their organization. This lack of awareness slows platform adoption and deprives teams of powerful productivity tools that are already available in their existing Microsoft 365 environment. Decision-makers cannot evaluate Power Platform’s potential or plan its deployment without a solid understanding of its capabilities.

The PL-900 training gives you a complete, structured overview of Microsoft Power Platform in a single day. You discover Power BI’s capabilities for data analysis and dashboard creation, Power Apps for no-code business application development, Power Automate for repetitive process automation, Power Pages for web portal creation and Copilot Studio for designing AI conversational agents. Live demonstrations and hands-on labs show you how these tools work together to solve real business problems. Delivered by MCT-certified trainers at ITTA in Geneva and Lausanne, this official MOC training prepares you for the Microsoft PL-900 certification.

Additional Information

Understanding Microsoft Power Platform in 2026

Microsoft Power Platform is a set of low-code tools that enables organizations to create custom applications, automate business processes, analyze data visually and design intelligent conversational agents, all without software development expertise. The platform comprises five main products working in synergy: Power BI for business intelligence and dashboards, Power Apps for canvas and model-driven application creation, Power Automate for workflow automation and process robotization, Power Pages for self-service web portals and Copilot Studio for AI conversational agents. These tools rely on Dataverse as a common, secure data layer and integrate natively with Microsoft 365, Dynamics 365 and Azure. In Switzerland, many organizations already use some of these tools without measuring their full potential or understanding how to combine them for maximum impact.

Detailed PL-900 training program

This day covers the entire Power Platform with a progressive, accessible approach. You start with an overview of the ecosystem, the platform architecture and Dataverse as the data foundation. You then discover Power BI in detail: connecting to data sources, transforming with Power Query, creating visual reports and sharing interactive dashboards. The Power Apps section shows you how to create canvas applications (free-form interface) and model-driven applications (data-centric) without writing code. Power Automate is presented with concrete examples of common process automation: approvals, notifications, cross-system data synchronization. You explore Copilot Studio to understand how to create AI conversational agents and Power Pages to discover web portal creation. Live demonstrations and practical exercises illustrate each tool with concrete business use cases from various industry sectors.

Microsoft PL-900 Power Platform Fundamentals certification

The PL-900 exam is a fundamentals-level certification that validates your overall understanding of Microsoft Power Platform. It covers each tool’s capabilities and business value, appropriate use cases, Dataverse and security concepts, and integration between platform components. It is the ideal certification for professionals wishing to demonstrate their Power Platform ecosystem knowledge to their employer or on the job market. It also serves as the official entry point to specialized certifications: PL-200 (functional consultant), PL-300 (Power BI analyst), PL-400 (developer) and PL-500 (RPA). ITTA’s MCT trainers prepare you with targeted advice and review exercises to pass the exam on your first attempt.
