VNode ITeS delivers Power Platform and Dataverse Foundations as an MCT-led VNode ITeS program for Application builders, Functional consultants. Typical duration is 32 hours (Private cohort). Delivery stays scoped to how your teams will actually use the platform after the room empties. Private cohorts can shift emphasis by role mix, workspace or repo constraints, and rollout timing.

Audience Profile

Built for these roles

Application builders, Functional consultants

  • Tailored Team Delivery

Overview

Executive overview

Build a secure request-tracking data model and automated workflow.

Environment and licensing

Isolated Power Platform environment with Dataverse Copilot Studio entitlement and consumption allowance where agents are used Maker access; delegated administrator for policy labs Two or more test personas and approved publishing channel Delivery depends on environment and lab validation. This outline does not include step-by-step lab instructions.

Prerequisites

  • Basic application and data concepts

Program Outcomes

Capabilities your teams will gain

  • Implement the request data model and approval process
  • Demonstrate approve, reject, failure and duplicate-handling cases
  • Prove submitter and approver access boundaries
  • Package the solution with environment values and support ownership

Enterprise Delivery

Private cohort delivery

VNode-designed, vendor-aligned instructor-led program. Scope role mix, delivery format, and rollout goals for your cohort.

Module 1 · 8 hours

Environment and solution foundations

+

Create a solution and map development, test and production responsibilities.

Tenants and environments

  • Distinguish tenant, environment and capacity responsibilities
  • Choose an isolated development environment

Developer versus production

  • Compare developer, sandbox and production uses
  • Identify maker and administrator responsibilities

Solutions and publishers

  • Create a publisher and solution boundary
  • Understand managed versus unmanaged deployment concepts

Connection references

  • Use connection references and environment variables conceptually
  • Plan dependencies between application components

Concept and design 4h · applied exercise 3h · review 1h. Included within module duration; no extra hours. Refine during delivery planning without silently changing published course hours.

Applied exercise: Environment and solution foundations

Create a solution and map development, test and production responsibilities.

Expected output. Environment and solution design

Acceptance. Produce an environment and solution map with named owners and dependencies.

Module 2 · 8 hours

Dataverse modelling and security

+

Model service requests and test access using separate personas.

Tables and relationships

  • Choose tables, columns, types and relationships
  • Define request status and validation rules

Choices and validation

  • Use choices and keys to reduce inconsistent records
  • Separate reference data from transactional data

Security roles

  • Design security roles around required tasks
  • Distinguish table privileges from record ownership

Ownership and access

  • Compare user-owned and organisation-owned access patterns
  • Test submitter, approver and administrator personas

Concept and design 4h · applied exercise 3h · review 1h. Included within module duration; no extra hours. Refine during delivery planning without silently changing published course hours.

Applied exercise: Dataverse modelling and security

Model service requests and test access using separate personas.

Expected output. Data model and persona access tests

Acceptance. The data model supports the workflow and denies access to unrelated records as designed.

Module 3 · 8 hours

Automation and integration

+

Build an approval flow with validation and failure handling.

Cloud flows

  • Select event triggers and filter conditions
  • Prevent unbounded duplicate flow execution

Triggers and actions

  • Map data between flow actions
  • Use expressions and basic Power Fx appropriately

Approvals

  • Represent approval, rejection and timeout outcomes
  • Handle invalid inputs before state-changing actions

Connector policy concepts and Power Fx introduction

  • Explain connector grouping and policy boundaries
  • Inspect flow failures and actionable error messages

Concept and design 4h · applied exercise 3h · review 1h. Included within module duration; no extra hours. Refine during delivery planning without silently changing published course hours.

Applied exercise: Automation and integration

Build an approval flow with validation and failure handling.

Expected output. Tested request approval workflow

Acceptance. The flow handles approve, reject and failure cases without duplicating requests.

Module 4 · 8 hours

Application integration and ALM

+

Move the solution to a test environment and demonstrate the controlled request lifecycle.

App integration patterns

  • Connect the data model to a simple application experience
  • Map user actions to flow and data operations

Environment variables

  • Externalise environment-specific values
  • Review connections and identity ownership before import

Import/export

  • Package dependencies in a solution
  • Compare deployment validation with business acceptance

Support documentation

  • Document the support owner and recovery actions
  • Demonstrate end-to-end request tracking after deployment

Concept and design 2h · applied exercise 4h · review 2h. Included within module duration; no extra hours. Refine during delivery planning without silently changing published course hours.

Capstone: Application integration and ALM

Move the solution to a test environment and demonstrate the controlled request lifecycle.

Expected output. Assessed deployable request-tracking solution

Acceptance. The imported solution completes the workflow with expected persona permissions.

Capstone

Move the solution to a test environment and demonstrate the controlled request lifecycle. Assessed deployable request-tracking solution Evidence of relevant access, quality and risk controls Demonstration and limitations record

Assessment

Participant deliverables

  • Assessed deployable request-tracking solution
  • Evidence of relevant access, quality and risk controls
  • Demonstration and limitations record

Scope boundaries

Step-by-step lab instructions; Runnable solution code; Packaged source datasets; Executed environment validation

Delivery options

Count teaching hours, not calendar days. Exclude breaks. Split into 4-hour or 8-hour teaching sessions; schedule complex project work in contiguous blocks.
