If you want to learn PowerApps, i can recommend this course on edX, https://courses.edx.org/courses/course-v1:Microsoft+DAT227x+1T2018/course/
On PowerApps training - following AudrieGordon in YouTube for get started and functions is a real winner. Check out - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCspdrsKTBXJTGuco6U3KF0Q/playlists?disable_polymer=1
