• Create role-specific onboarding guides for portal administrators and functional users

✅ REQUIRED

• 5+ years delivering Microsoft Power Platform training in enterprise or government environments
• Demonstrated train-the-trainer experience — internal capability building, not just end-user delivery
• Deep Power Pages knowledge: Portal Management App, Power Pages Studio, entity permissions, web roles
• Power Automate training experience — teaching non-technical staff to build approval and notification flows
• Strong remote facilitation skills
• At least one Microsoft cert: PL-200 or PL-900
• U.S. citizen or authorized to work in the U.S.

⭐ PREFERRED

• California state agency or government grant management experience
