Workshop brief

Plan your Microsoft 365 Copilot workshop

Tell us about your team, Microsoft 365 environment, adoption stage and governance priorities.

How it works

Three levels of Copilot maturity

Most organisations start at level one and aim to reach level three within 90 days. The workshop maps your current position and designs a realistic path forward.

Copilot Chat, your secure in-flow assistant

Start where teams already work: Teams, Outlook, Word and the web. Copilot Chat connects to your Microsoft 365 data so responses are grounded in your organisation's documents, emails and calendar, not the public internet alone.

Microsoft TeamsOutlookWord & PowerPointWeb grounding

Researcher & Analyst, accelerating strategic work

Researcher connects to the web and enterprise data to conduct deep research on your behalf. Analyst reasons over structured data like spreadsheets and reports, then generates insights and visualisations you can act on immediately.

Copilot agents, automating team workflows

Agents built in Copilot Studio or Agent Builder extend Copilot from personal assistant to team workflow automation. They answer questions from your SharePoint knowledge base, route requests, submit forms and escalate to humans at the right moment.

Security & governance

What IT and compliance teams need to know

Microsoft 365 Copilot is built on the Microsoft 365 compliance boundary. The workshop includes a governance module so procurement, legal and IT stakeholders can make informed decisions alongside business teams.

Microsoft 365 service boundary

Microsoft 365 Copilot operates within the Microsoft 365 service boundary. Prompts, responses and Microsoft Graph data are not used to train the foundation models, and access follows your organisation's permissions.

Permission-respecting responses

Copilot surfaces only content the user already has access to. It enforces your existing SharePoint, Teams and Exchange permissions automatically.

Audit and compliance visibility

The Copilot Control System gives administrators visibility into agent activity, content interactions, and usage patterns, aligned with Microsoft Purview compliance.

Agent governance with Copilot Studio

Agents built in Copilot Studio can be scoped, published selectively, monitored for quality, and retired through a defined lifecycle, not left running without oversight.

Common questions

Is this workshop only for organisations that already have Microsoft 365 Copilot licences? +

No. The workshop is useful at any stage, whether you are evaluating Copilot, rolling it out, or trying to improve adoption after an existing deployment. We adjust the focus based on where your team is.

What is the difference between Microsoft 365 Copilot and Copilot Studio? +

Microsoft 365 Copilot is the AI assistant built into the apps your team already uses (Teams, Outlook, Word, Excel). Copilot Studio is the platform for building custom agents and automations that connect to your own data, APIs and workflows. The workshop covers both and when each is appropriate.

How is this different from Microsoft's own training materials? +

Microsoft's materials focus on product adoption. We focus on Swiss business context, governance decisions, and building practical habits your teams can use immediately, not just awareness. We also cover where Copilot should and should not be used, which is often the harder conversation.

Can the workshop be delivered for teams that use other Microsoft tools like Azure OpenAI? +

Yes. We can tailor sessions to cover Microsoft 365 Copilot alongside Azure OpenAI and Foundry patterns for teams building custom AI on the Microsoft stack.
