Doing the same monotonous tasks every day won't improve your skills, nor will it lead to a promotion. What if there was a way to delegate routine work and focus on higher-value projects that increase your job satisfaction and add to your professional resume?
With citizen development you can do just that! No matter your job title or technical experience—finance specialist, marketing manager, or sales representative—the UiPath Business Automation Platform enables everyone to become a citizen developer and automate their day-to-day tasks with the power of no-code automation.
A citizen developer is a business user who can automate tasks without being a coding expert. They have a good understanding of business processes and can pinpoint areas suitable for automation. Citizen developers can be found in various departments within an organization—from finance and marketing to human resources and customer service. They possess good analytical and logical skills which enable them to automate tasks for themselves or their teams using no-code automation tools.
As a citizen developer, you don’t just bring additional value to your company. You also add value to your professional career.
Companies that combine an automation center of excellence (CoE) and citizen developers see better business results.
