Microsoft Copilot Essentials
A hands-on hour to get you actually using Microsoft Copilot at work, from a blank prompt to a real result you can use the same afternoon.
About this session
One hour, live and online. We open Copilot together and walk through the everyday jobs it's genuinely good at, drafting and summarising, tidying up documents, getting through your inbox and pulling sense out of a spreadsheet. You follow along on your own account, so you leave having done it once rather than just watched a demo. Plain English, no jargon, questions welcome throughout.
Who it’s for
Business owners, leaders and teams who have Microsoft Copilot (or are about to) and want to get real value from it rather than letting the licence sit unused. No technical background needed.
If you're a developer or IT admin after a deep technical deployment session, this isn't that. It's a practical, get-started hour for the people using Copilot to get their work done.

Nothing. This session is free and open to anyone.
Online. You'll get a joining link when you register.
It helps, since this is a follow-along session, but you're welcome even without one. You'll see exactly what Copilot does before deciding whether it's worth it.
Not at all. It's built for business owners and leaders, not IT teams. If you can use a web browser, you can follow along.
