I'm still confused on how to get started

HI @Veebo

Welcome to forum !

Anyone can learn UiPath , A little basics of programming language is good if no knowledge can also able to learn UiPath

Checkout the official academy page

You can start with Starter course and then you can go through the courses based on the Role

Yes you can , but you need to have more and more hands on experience and you should need a strong knowledge about the basics .

You can also checkout some youtube channels in which you can get complete package and you can learn there too

Happy Learning !!
