Workshop: Take Back Your Time: A Hands-On Workshop for Microsoft 365 Copilot

Friday, April 24th,Workshop Hours: 9 am – 4 pm

What would your team achieve with an extra hour every day? This hands-on workshop turns Microsoft 365 Copilot from “cool demo” into measurable time savings. Working through practical scenarios, you’ll discover how Copilot:

· Accelerates meeting lifecycle (plan → run → recap in Teams)
· Transforms content creation (draft/rewrite in Word and PowerPoint)
· Speeds up communication (summarize and act in Outlook)
· Boosts analysis (explore, explain, and visualize in Excel)

Discover how to apply these skills in real-world workflows across Teams, SharePoint, OneDrive, Loop, and more!

You’ll leave with ready-to-use templates, a rollout checklist, and a 30/60/90-day plan that covers prompts + agents + governance – so you can take back your time and amplify it with the right agent in the right place.

Beyond features, we will highlight utilizing Copilot and agents at scale. You’ll learn when to use built-in Copilot capabilities vs. an agent built for your specific needs. Hands-on segments include:
· Building Copilot Chat agents for common team tasks
· Configuring SharePoint agents to answer site-specific questions with clear guardrails
· Designing Copilot Studio agents that deliver custom capabilities with consistent results

What you’ll learn (outcomes)
· Apply Copilot best practices to reclaim time across meetings, documents, email, and data.
· Identify when an agent adds value vs. a one-off prompt; write an agent brief and scope.
· Build a lightweight adoption plan (champions, training, comms, prompt & agent galleries).
· Prototype: Copilot Chat agent, SharePoint agent configuration, and a Copilot Studio agent blueprint.
· Measure and communicate impact using the Copilot Dashboard

Business leaders, team managers, power users/champions, IT/Collab admins, enablement & training pros.
