Microsoft Copilot Power User: Advanced Techniques for Maximum Impact

Take your Copilot skills beyond the basics with advanced prompting techniques, smarter app integrations, and workflow automation. Learn how to format and ground your prompts for better output, choose the right language model for each task, and schedule prompts to handle recurring work automatically. On the app side, go deeper with Excel, Word, PowerPoint, Outlook, and Notebooks—plus use the Agent Store and Create tool to build visuals and generate files without leaving the chat interface. If you’re already comfortable with Copilot and want to get more out of it, this course shows you how.

This course was created by Jess Stratton. We are pleased to host this training in our library.
