"I am so glad that I purchased your course. I like your teaching style and find it easy to learn." - Ray from Canada
 
Course Description
This video is all about a Power Apps training course for beginners as well as already experienced Power App developers alike! I'll be previewing the Time Tracking app that we will be BUILDING TOGETHER during the actual course!
 
The course is about 3 hours long and I'll be able to answer any questions you have during it. The unique part about the course is that it allows you to learn Power Apps by actually building an application with me. This allows you to understand concepts as you see me do them and as you implement them yourself while following along.
 
By the end, you'll have a fully functioning Power Apps Time Tracking Application!
