Is the Open Day right for you?

This day suits you if

  • Your organisation pays for Copilot and you want to get much more out of your seat.
  • You are deciding whether to buy more Copilot licences and want to learn it properly first.
  • You are the person your colleagues will ask about AI, and you want to know it well.

It is not the right fit if

  • You will not have a Microsoft 365 Copilot licence by the day. Every attendee needs one.
  • You want to build custom agents and integrations in Copilot Studio. Our AI 301 program covers that.
  • Five or more people from your organisation need training. An in-house workshop suits a group better.

The day

Six sessions, from the fundamentals to skills and agents

Each day runs from 9:30 am to 4:00 pm local time, with lunch provided. Every attendee needs a Microsoft 365 work account with a Microsoft 365 Copilot licence, signed in on the laptop they bring. Bring a few documents or a spreadsheet from your own work as well, leaving out anything confidential.

Morning

01

The fundamentals of Copilot

What Copilot does well, where it falls short, and how Copilot Chat differs from the licensed Microsoft 365 Copilot, so you know what you have.

02

Copilot in Outlook and Teams

Summarising threads and meetings, drafting replies and catching up on what you missed, on your own inbox and calendar.

03

Prompting and advanced techniques

How to brief Copilot so the first answer is usable, including grounding it in the right files, and the techniques that raise the quality of everything after it.
Afternoon, after lunch

04

The top four unlocks for your role

Four high-value uses for the work you do, worked through on tasks you bring with you.

05

Copilot in Excel

Analysing spreadsheets, cleaning data with the built-in clean data skill, building formulas and turning numbers into charts and summaries you can use.

06

Word, PowerPoint, skills and agents

Drafting and reworking documents, building a deck from a document, and saving a task you repeat as a skill. Then handing longer, multi-step work to agents and Cowork, where your organisation has switched them on.

What clients say after the session

Verified reviews from Google Business

“Attended a training session with AI Ready and found it really valuable. The content was clear, practical, and well-paced, with plenty of real-world examples that made it easy to see how to apply what we learned straight away. The trainer was knowledgeable and happy to answer questions throughout. Would definitely recommend to others looking to get up to speed on AI tools.”

“Fantastic AI training company - super patient with a bunch of beginners (so we did the first module, there are more advanced ones as you progress through), adapted the session to the room's pace, used language we could understand, explained the new world of AI and AI lingo in laymans terms and never lost patience. Could not recommend Brett and Andy more highly.”

“Jesse and Lachy were fantastic, they were super patient and clear with their instructions, and made sure everyone was feeling comfortable and on the same page before continuing through the content. The content itself was extremely transferable and I will certainly be taking what I’ve learned away from the sessions to begin experimenting with my new found skills. I would certainly recommend them as an AI trainer for anyone looking”
