Microsoft and PMI jointly launched the Power Platform University Hub platform to provide certification for low code learning.

CTOnews.com news on December 1, quoting foreign technology media NeoWin, reported that Microsoft has been vigorously promoting low-code solutions in recent years, and even released a new programming language for this purpose. Microsoft today announced a partnership with the American non-profit organization Project Management Institute (Project Management Association) to launch the Power Platform University Hub platform for low-code learners.

Power Platform University Hub platform mainly serves college students, through more than a dozen professional courses to improve their employability. These courses cover low code development, analysis tools, business intelligence, etc., and teach college students to use low code development to build applications, data visualization, chatbots, websites, and so on.

"the entire civic development movement is a catalyst for accelerating change and is revolutionizing the way we work and the way we can create social impact," said Sam Sibley, global head of citizen developers at PMI. "that's why we are happy to work with Microsoft to help students around the world have the skills they need to thrive in the workplace and influence social change."

CTOnews.com learned that low Code (Low-Code) is a platform software that facilitates the generation of applications, and the software development environment allows users to write programs with graphical interfaces and configurations, rather than traditional programming practices. This platform may be designed and developed for certain types of applications, such as databases, business processes, and user interfaces. Such platforms may produce complete and functioning applications, or they may still need to write programs in some special cases.
