What this course is
Where business solutions become enterprise-grade.
PL-200 is Microsoft's Power Platform Functional Consultant credential. It validates that you can deliver enterprise-grade Power Platform solutions — not just citizen-developer apps. The cert is the gold standard for Microsoft Dynamics 365 partner consultants in MY.
At Nexperts, PL-200 is delivered against a live Power Platform tenant with a CoE Starter Kit deployed. By day 4 you've configured a model-driven app for a contact-centre, designed a 6-table Dataverse schema with security roles, deployed Power Pages for external customers and built a Copilot Studio bot.
PL-200 is the cert that filters Power Platform tinkerers from delivery consultants. The exam tests whether you can deliver the right solution, not just build any solution.
The 2026 PL-200 update sharpened the focus on Copilot Studio, AI Builder, Power Pages experience, and Dataverse virtual tables. We cover all four with hands-on builds.

Why our pass rate is 92%
Industry average: ~68%
Most candidates know the components but freeze on configuration scenarios. Business rules vs process flows vs Power Fx is genuinely confusing without real-tenant practice.
Nexperts: 92%
We configure real solutions every day. We drill scenario reading. By exam day, configuration thinking is reflex.
Your Power Platform Path
PL-200 pairs with PL-400 and PL-600.
PL-200 stacks naturally with PL-400 (Developer) for pro-code depth or PL-600 (Solution Architect) for end-to-end delivery.
