Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat for Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook Training Course

This practical, interactive course acquaints participants with the concept of AI agents within Microsoft 365 Copilot and demonstrates how individuals can create their own simple agents without requiring any coding skills or extra tools.

Participants will investigate pre-built Microsoft agents, such as Researcher and Analyst, gain insight into how AI agents function within business environments, and acquire the skills to design and utilise their own agents through structured prompts and workflows in Copilot.

Focusing on real-world scenarios, the course empowers participants to automate repetitive tasks, boost productivity, and develop reusable AI assistants that can be effortlessly shared among team members.

Upon completion of the session, participants will have successfully constructed their own AI agent and will possess the ability to apply this methodology in their everyday professional activities.

Microsoft Copilot is quickly becoming one of the most powerful productivity tools for organisations running Microsoft 365. Yet many businesses find that merely handing out Copilot licences doesn't automatically deliver clear business value. Without hands-on guidance, employees often tap into only a small slice of its potential, leaving significant opportunities to save time, strengthen collaboration, and improve decision-making on the table.

This two-day, instructor-led training helps employees move past initial experimentation and gain the confidence to weave Microsoft Copilot into their daily routines. Instead of focusing on isolated features, the course shows how Copilot can serve as a practical assistant across the entire business—from production planning and quality reporting to financial analysis, HR documentation, engineering collaboration, supply chain communication, and IT knowledge management.

Built around realistic manufacturing scenarios, the training lets participants work with workflows that closely mirror their day-to-day responsibilities. Over the two days, they learn to craft effective prompts, analyse data, produce professional documents, summarise meetings, automate repetitive communications, and collaborate more efficiently using Word, Excel, Outlook, Teams, PowerPoint, and Copilot Chat.

By the end of the programme, participants walk away with immediately applicable skills, reusable prompt libraries tailored to their roles, and proven workflows that help shift Microsoft Copilot from an emerging technology into a genuine productivity multiplier across the organisation.

Learning Outcomes

By the end of this course, participants will be able to:

• Understand how Microsoft Copilot fits into the Microsoft 365 ecosystem.

• Write effective prompts that consistently produce useful business results.

• Use Copilot Chat as a daily productivity assistant.

• Summarise meetings, emails, and documents in seconds.

• Analyse Excel data using natural language.

• Create reports, presentations, and professional communications significantly faster.

• Apply department-specific Copilot workflows across manufacturing functions.

• Use Copilot responsibly while protecting company data and maintaining compliance.

• Build reusable prompt libraries for everyday work.

Training Format

• Interactive instructor-led sessions

• Live demonstrations

• Hands-on Microsoft 365 exercises

• Manufacturing-focused case studies

• Individual and collaborative practical labs

Course Customization Options

This course can be fully customised to reflect the organisation's Microsoft 365 environment, internal document templates, reporting formats, approval processes, and departmental workflows. Practical exercises can be built using anonymised production reports, quality records, engineering documentation, financial summaries, HR templates, and supply chain scenarios, ensuring participants practise with situations that closely resemble their everyday work.

Expected Organisational Outcomes

When delivered across multiple departments, this programme helps establish a common approach to AI adoption throughout the organisation. Instead of isolated experimentation, employees develop shared ways of working with Copilot, reducing repetitive administrative work, improving communication, accelerating reporting, and enabling managers to make faster, more informed decisions. The result is not simply greater familiarity with Microsoft Copilot, but a stronger foundation for organisation-wide productivity and collaboration.
