# About Super Power Labs ## Our Mission We exist to **democratize professional Power Apps development** by providing world-class training, mentorship, and community support that transforms beginners into confident, capable developers — without the barriers of traditional education or the frustration of self-learning alone. ## Our Story Super Power Labs was founded by **Darren Neese**, a Microsoft Power Apps MVP with over 20 years of software development experience. After teaching Power Apps at Microsoft Partners, community colleges, and technical centers, Darren recognized a critical gap: most Power Apps training teaches people to click buttons, but doesn't teach them to *think like professional developers*. That's when Super Power Labs was born — to bridge the gap between beginner tutorials and professional development through: - **Learning by Doing** — Real applications, not toy examples - **Expert Mentorship** — Direct access to professionals who've been there - **Structured Curriculum** — Clear paths from beginner to professional - **Community Support** — Learn alongside others on the same journey ## What Makes Us Different ### 🎯 Professional Developer Perspective We teach Power Apps from a software engineering mindset — best practices, scalable architecture, maintainable code, and professional workflows. ### 🤝 Personalized Mentorship Unlike YouTube tutorials or massive online courses, we provide 1-on-1 guidance, live workshops, and direct access to experienced developers. ### 📈 Proven Track Record 95% of our Accelerator Program students successfully land Power Apps roles or advance their careers. Our students work at Fortune 500 companies, government agencies, and innovative startups. ### 🧑‍🎓 We Remember Being Beginners Power Apps was difficult for us at first too. We know exactly where you'll struggle and how to help you overcome those challenges faster. --- ## Our Team ### Darren Neese — Founder & Lead Trainer <img src="/UTILITY/Images/staff/darren-squared.png" alt="Darren Neese" width="200" style="border-radius: 10px; float: left; margin: 0 20px 10px 0;" /> **Microsoft Power Apps MVP** with 26+ years of software development experience.
