Course Introduction
About the Course
Finance teams are under constant pressure to do more with less—analyzing data, preparing reports, and ensuring compliance, all while keeping costs down. Automation is the key to meeting these demands, and this course shows you how to harness two powerful tools: Google Colab and Zapier. Together, they enable you to automate repetitive finance tasks, streamline workflows, and focus on higher-value activities.
You’ll begin by learning the basics of Google Colab, a cloud-based Python environment that makes it easy to write, run, and share code. The course will guide you through setting up Colab notebooks for common finance tasks, such as data collection, cleaning, and analysis. You’ll see how Python libraries can automate calculations, generate reports, and visualize financial data.
Next, you’ll dive into Zapier, a no-code automation platform that connects your favorite apps and services. You’ll learn how to create “Zaps” that trigger actions based on events—like automatically importing data from emails into Google Sheets, or sending alerts when certain financial thresholds are met. The course will show you how to integrate Colab scripts with Zapier, creating seamless, end-to-end automation for tasks like expense tracking, invoice processing, and financial reporting.
Throughout the course, you’ll work on practical projects that mirror real finance workflows, building solutions you can use immediately in your own work. You’ll also learn best practices for maintaining data security and compliance in automated processes.
By the end of this course, you’ll be able to design and implement automated finance workflows that save time, reduce errors, and deliver faster, more accurate insights.
