Course Overview
The PowerShell Automation Technician programme equips IT professionals with the skills to automate routine support and administration tasks using PowerShell. Through mentor-led instruction and practical scenarios, participants learn how to create scripts that streamline common service desk operations such as user management, system reporting, and ticket-related automation.
The programme focuses on safe scripting practices and operational reliability. Learners develop structured automation scripts, practise bulk actions for user and device management, and generate reports that support IT operations teams. Emphasis is placed on writing maintainable scripts, validating inputs, and reviewing automation to avoid operational risks.
By the end of the programme, participants will be able to design practical PowerShell scripts that automate repetitive tasks, reduce manual effort, and improve consistency in IT support processes aligned with modern operational practices.
