Responsible generative AI with Microsoft Copilot

An introductory day for teams that already have Microsoft 365. Many people use Copilot like a search engine: participants learn to hold a structured dialogue with it and leave with a shared prompt library.

Responsible generative AI with Microsoft Copilot

Learning objectives

The learning objectives of this training course can be assessed. By the end of the session, each participant is able to:

  • Explain in plain terms how generative AI works and tell apart a language model, a configured assistant and an agent
  • Launch Microsoft Copilot in their work environment and know what the free version and Microsoft 365 Copilot each cover
  • Prepare a work document before submitting it to Copilot by removing third parties' personal data, sensitive data as defined in Article 9 of the GDPR and information protected by a secrecy obligation
  • Identify the main risks of generative AI at work (confidentiality, hallucinations, misleading synthetic content, GDPR) and apply the matching verification habits
  • Apply the CRAFT method (context, role, action, format, target) to write a structured prompt and get a usable result
  • Iterate on a prompt until it reaches the expected quality using prompting methods (zero-shot, one-shot, few-shot, chain of thought)
  • Document a prompt as a reusable prompt card and add it to their team's shared prompt library
  • Draw up a personal 30-day action plan with measurable tracking indicators

Audience and prerequisites

Target audience. All employees working in a Microsoft 365 environment.

Prerequisites. Working knowledge of the Microsoft 365 suite: Word, Excel, Outlook and Teams. The course is designed for complete beginners in generative AI.

Each participant's actual level is checked before the session with a placement questionnaire, which is used to adjust the course outline.

Program

The full outline, sequence by sequence, is in the detailed program you receive before registering.

Share the learning objectives, the outline of the day and the data use rule. On your own computer, list the repetitive tasks that will feed the afternoon Prompt-a-thon.
Explain in plain terms how generative AI works and tell apart a language model, a configured assistant and an agent. Launch Microsoft Copilot from your computer and know what the free version and Microsoft 365 Copilot each cover.
Learn the main prompting methods (zero-shot, one-shot, few-shot, chain of thought) and when to use them. Structure a prompt with the CRAFT method (context, role, action, format, target).
As a group, select 6 to 8 priority tasks that can be handled with the version of Copilot the team has. In small groups, produce a series of documented prompts that handles 2 of these tasks using the group members' own work documents.
Present your small group's solution and open it to critical feedback from your peers. Add your prompt cards to the team's shared library and agree on the rules for maintaining it.

Teaching methods and resources

The course alternates between live demonstrations with commentary, guided workshops and hands-on practice on the participants' real cases. Theory is limited to what you need to put things into practice.

  • A practitioner trainer who works on the topics taught
  • Course materials provided to each participant
  • Each participant works on their own computer with their own files
  • Environment set up in advance and tested before the session

In person

The training takes place at the client's premises. The client provides a room equipped with a projector or screen, an internet connection and one computer per participant.

Remote

The training takes place in a virtual classroom, as a group and live with the trainer, at set times. Participants interact by voice, screen sharing and chat, in both directions and throughout the session. Each participant's login is recorded and serves as proof of attendance. Technical support is available by email and phone for the whole session, and a connection test is offered before the day.

Hybrid

A single session can bring together on-site and remote participants. The trainer leads from the in-person venue, and remote participants follow in a virtual classroom with the same individual support and the same deliverables.

Assessment and certification

  • Placement questionnaire before the training starts
  • Continuous assessment through the exercises produced during the session
  • Final assessment of what was learned against the objectives listed above
  • Satisfaction survey at the end of the session, then a follow-up survey a few weeks later

Each participant receives an end-of-training certificate stating the objectives and the assessment results. A certificate of completion is also sent to the funding body where applicable.

Jessy knows his subject inside out and, above all, shares it passionately with his students. His advice and follow-up will certainly help the CAMPUS 2023 apprentices and the clubs where they work. I very strongly recommend him.

Any questions?

Jessy Martin Academy is a registered training provider [a status declared to the French State], which lets your company charge the cost to its skills development plan [the training plan a French employer funds from its own budget]. Funding from an OPCO [French skills operator that funds employee training] also requires Qualiopi certification [France's quality certification for training providers], which we are currently preparing. We'll tell you where things stand during the scoping call.
The lead time is set with you during the scoping call and appears in the training agreement [the contract French law requires between a company and its training provider]. It depends on the participants' availability and on the funding process, since external funding always takes longer.
Yes, and that's the most common case. An analysis of your needs and a placement assessment of the participants always come before the session, and the outline is adjusted accordingly. For needs far removed from this program, we build a dedicated course.
Active access to Microsoft Copilot, either the free version or Microsoft 365 Copilot, which the trainee or their company provides. The exact list of tools used and the related subscription costs are sent to you in writing no later than 15 days before the start date.
Let us know in our very first conversation. Together we look at adjustments to materials, pace, duration, assessment or access to the premises. Disability lead: Jessy Martin, contact@jessem.fr.
