Description

Robotic Process Automation (RPA) has become the fastest-growing software market by reducing costs and increasing productivity with a digital workforce of bots. Jordan explains the basics of RPA – what it is, how it works, benefits and challenges, and examples of it’s use, while also clearing up common misconceptions.

When I first started my RPA journey, I had never even heard of Automation Anywhere. I was pursuing a Computer Science degree after holding positions in various industries such as real estate, food service, and retail. But within three years, I had gone from a Student Intern to consulting for multiple enterprise-level RPA programs, including a Fortune 500 company. In my various roles, I have personally built and maintained over 100 individual bots that have saved over 70,000 hours of labor. I have also developed custom tools that reinforce RPA programs by automating the bot development lifecycle and providing a shared code framework designed for program-wide use.

I founded Afterburner Automation because in the many roles I have held in my RPA career, I’ve noticed that while you may not need a Computer Science degree, it is extremely difficult to succeed in RPA without in-depth, ongoing training and support beyond what is currently available. Whether you are brand new to Automation Anywhere, a long-term developer, or a business analyst or manager, my courses will set you apart as a true RPA guru, resulting in faster bot development, increased program reliability, and higher paying career opportunities. Please feel free to reach out so that I can best help you set yourself apart within the growing RPA industry.
