Microsoft AI & Copilot Training

Microsoft AI & Copilot Training

Learn Microsoft 365 Copilot, Copilot Studio and the Azure AI stack, live online, from a Microsoft Certified Trainer who also holds Microsoft's Azure AI and security certifications.

Microsoft has spread "AI" across three distinct layers of its stack: Microsoft 365 Copilot, the assistant built into Word, Excel, Outlook and Teams; Copilot Studio, the low-code platform for building custom copilots and agents; and Azure AI, the developer platform underneath both, including Azure OpenAI Service and Azure AI Foundry. Each layer needs a different kind of training, and most organisations end up buying licences for all three without a clear plan for who learns what.

This cluster covers Microsoft AI and Copilot training for every audience in that chain: employees who need to prompt Microsoft 365 Copilot productively and pass Microsoft's official AB-730 exam, transformation leads who need to build the business case and govern a rollout (AB-731), and builders who want to construct Copilot Studio agents and connect Azure AI Foundry or Azure OpenAI into a real automation, hands-on. All courses run live online, worldwide, taught by Muyiwa Ogunlade, a Microsoft Certified Trainer who independently holds Microsoft's Azure Solutions Architect Expert, Cybersecurity Architect Expert and Cloud and AI Security Engineer Associate certifications.

Questions

Common questions.

What is Microsoft Copilot training?

Microsoft Copilot training teaches people to use Microsoft's generative AI tools productively and safely — from everyday prompting inside Microsoft 365 Copilot to building custom agents in Copilot Studio and designing applications on Azure AI. It ranges from one-day fluency sessions for general staff to multi-week architecture programmes for engineers.

What's the difference between Microsoft 365 Copilot and Copilot Studio?

Microsoft 365 Copilot is a ready-made AI assistant embedded in Word, Excel, Outlook, Teams and PowerPoint, grounded in your organisation's own data. Copilot Studio is a separate low-code platform used to build custom copilots and agents that go beyond that built-in assistant, connecting to specific data sources and systems.

Do Cloudpilar Academy's Microsoft AI courses prepare you for a Microsoft certification exam?

Yes. AI Fluency for Every Employee prepares you for Microsoft's official AB-730 (AI Business Professional) exam, and Drive AI Transformation in Your Organisation prepares you for AB-731 (AI Transformation Leader). The Microsoft exam fee is paid separately to Microsoft and is not included in the Cloudpilar course price.

Is Azure AI training included in Microsoft Copilot training?

Copilot fluency courses (AB-730, AB-731) and Copilot Studio courses don't require Azure skills. For the Azure AI and Azure OpenAI layer specifically — model selection, grounding, connecting Azure AI Foundry into a real workflow — see week 4 of AI Automation & Agentic Business Systems (ABS-01), aimed at builders comfortable picking up new tools rather than general staff.
