Stop sending people to generic courses. Start with the course their role calls for.

Bauer Automate trains teams on Microsoft 365, Power Platform and Power BI. It also teaches consulting skills to technical builders. Courses are sorted by who is learning, not by product. Live sessions run over Teams or in person, and self-paced courses run on TrainerCentral.

Bauer Automate training session for a Microsoft 365 team

Most staff learned Microsoft 365 by guessing, watching a colleague guess, and inventing a workaround. The recorded course somebody bought last year is still at module two. We teach the tools you already own, so nothing here asks you to buy new software first.

Each course below names its learner, its shape and its length. Live sessions are short enough that people attend all of them. Self-paced courses come with labs in your own Microsoft 365, job aids and a workbook, not a link to a video.

Pick the group your people are in. Or book a free consultation and we will tell you which course fits, and when it is not one of ours.

Add-ons for any course

  • A certificate of completion, issued on TrainerCentral. Contact us for pricing.

FROM ASK TO CLASSROOM

How it works

  1. Tell us who needs it. How many people, what they do, and what you want to be different afterwards. That last one matters more than the course name.
  2. We confirm what fits. Sometimes it is one of the courses on this page. Sometimes it is not, and we say so rather than sell you the nearest thing.
  3. We scope and quote it. Format, session count, group size and cost, in writing, before you commit.
  4. We teach it. Live, to your group, in blocks short enough that your team can still do their jobs that week; or self-paced on TrainerCentral.

COMING NEXT

What is opening next

Outlook 101 is the first of a planned family of single-app sessions. Ask us to tell you when the next ones are ready.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Frequently asked questions

Live or self-paced?

Both. Live sessions run over Teams or in person, as a public cohort or a private one for your team. Self-paced courses run on TrainerCentral with labs, job aids and a workbook. Ask us which shape fits before you book.

Do you certify us?

No. PL-900 and PL-300 prepare you for Microsoft's exams of those names. The exam voucher is not included and a pass is not promised. Every other course is a topic course with a certificate of completion, which is not a Microsoft credential.

Can you run a course privately for our team?

Yes, on request, for up to 12 people. Private cohorts are scoped and quoted in writing. The Light sessions include four attendees and take more at a per-seat rate.

Do learners need their own Microsoft 365?

For the hands-on courses, yes: labs run in your own tenant. When that is not possible, a 30-day practice tenant is available as an add-on.

Who teaches?

People who spend the rest of their week delivering client work. The team includes a Microsoft Certified Trainer and holds all seven Microsoft Power Platform certifications.
