THE PROBLEM

Copilot Is Here - But Nobody's Shown You How to Actually Use It

Does this sound familiar?

Your organization rolled out Microsoft Copilot. Everyone's excited about "AI transformation." But nobody actually trained you on how to use it. You've clicked around, tried a few things, and... got mediocre results.

 Meanwhile: 

  • You're still spending hours on tasks Copilot could handle in minutes
  • You type vague prompts and get vague answers
  • You're not sure when to use Copilot vs. doing it the "old way"
  • Other assistants seem to "get it" while you're still figuring it out
  • You're worried about looking behind if you ask basic questions 

Here's the truth:

Copilot is powerful, but only if you know how to use it properly. Random experimentation and YouTube videos won't get you there.

You need structured, expert-led training that shows you exactly what to do.

THE SOLUTION

Introducing Microsoft 365 Fundamentals with AI & Copilot

This is 4 weeks of focused, practical, live training that takes you from "Copilot-confused" to "Copilot-confident."

Every application. Every scenario. Every prompt that actually works.

🎯 Copilot-First Approach We don't teach "old Microsoft 365 then bolt on AI." You learn the AI-powered way from day one - because that's how you'll actually work.

💬 Live and Interactive. Not pre-recorded videos. Real-time training where you practice together, ask questions, and get immediate feedback. Small cohorts ensure you're never lost

🛠️ Immediately Practical Every module focuses on real tasks you do daily: reports, presentations, emails, meetings, data analysis. You'll use these skills the very next day.

👩‍🏫 Taught by an Expert Who Gets You Shelley Fishel has trained assistants for 20+ years and sold 2.5 million books on Microsoft Office. She knows exactly what you need and how to explain it clearly (without the jargon).

 📚 Comprehensive but Focused Covers everything you need (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Teams + Copilot) without overwhelming you with features you'll never use.

WHO THIS COURSE IS FOR

Is This Course Right for You?

This course is perfect for you if:

  • You're an EA, PA, or administrative professional
  • Your organization has (or is getting) Microsoft Copilot
  • You want to actually understand how to use AI effectively
  • You're tired of feeling behind and want expert guidance
  •  You can commit 2 hours per week for 4 weeks
  •  You want to work smarter, impress your executive, and feel confident
  •  You're ready to actually implement what you learn (not just collect information)

This might not be right if:

  • You're already a Copilot power user, using it daily with advanced prompts
  • You don't have (and won't have) access to Microsoft Copilot
  • You're looking for IT/developer-level technical training
  • You can't commit to attending or watching all 4 modules
  •  You're not ready to change how you work

Technical requirements:

  • Microsoft 365 subscription with Copilot license (for full hands-on experience)
  • Stable internet connection
  • Webcam and microphone essential for interaction
  • A quiet space where you can focus and participate fully

Don't have Copilot yet?
You'll still learn valuable concepts and skills that prepare you for when you do get access (and help you make the business case for it!). Many participants use this course to understand what's possible and justify the investment to their organization.

TRANSFORMATION STORIES

"I can't recommend Shelley's course highly enough"

"Shelley's teaching style is relaxed but engaging, she's happy to take questions & go over things more than once and in different ways to help you understand. If you need to get to grips with Copilot – whether it's because you want to or (worse) have to, then I can't recommend Shelley's course highly enough."  


Colin Foster
USB4Business

“I’ve become the go-to person for AI at work”

"This course has benefitted me enormously in becoming the go-to person for all things AI with colleagues. I learned an awful lot in these four sessions with Shelley across Microsoft 365 and can better visualize how to use it on a daily basis.

Shelley uses clear examples on how to incorporate it in daily work, and not only that but the access to the recordings and the additional documents is invaluable, thank you so much again Shelley!"



Elizabeth Bate
Executive Assistant

 A game-changer for my productivity”

 "Attending the Copilot AI course was a game-changer.

Frequently Asked Questions

You'll still gain valuable knowledge about AI concepts, prompt engineering, and Microsoft 365 best practices. Many participants use the course to understand what Copilot can do and make the business case for their organization to provide access. However, for the full hands-on experience, Copilot access is recommended. Some participants have successfully requested access after Module 1 once they understand the benefits!

Every session is recorded and available within 24 hours. You have lifetime access, so you can watch on your schedule and revisit anytime. Many participants watch recordings to review and reinforce learning. However, live attendance is encouraged for the best interactive experience.

Not at all! Module 1 starts with the absolute fundamentals. Shelley assumes no prior AI knowledge and builds your skills progressively. Her teaching style makes complex topics accessible. If anything, complete beginners often progress fastest because they don't have bad habits to unlearn!

Absolutely! Copilot changes everything about how you work with Microsoft 365. Even experienced users discover time-saving techniques and AI-powered features they never knew existed. Many "power users" report this course transformed their workflow completely.

No formal homework, but you'll benefit most from practicing between sessions. We provide optional exercises and strongly encourage you to try techniques in your real work immediately - that's when the learning really sticks. The best results come from participants who experiment between modules.

Technology changes, and sometimes Copilot behaves differently across accounts or versions. We'll troubleshoot together during sessions and teach you problem-solving strategies. Plus, with lifetime recording access, you can always revisit solutions. Shelley stays current with updates and adjusts teaching accordingly.

Yes! We offer organizational pricing and can customize delivery for your team with flexible scheduling. Visit our Organizations page or contact us for group rates and bespoke options.

2 hours per week for 4 weeks (8 hours total live training). Plus optional practice time between sessions - as little or as much as you want. Most participants find 20-30 minutes of practice between modules is enough to see real results.

If you attend Module 1 and feel the course isn't what you need, contact us within 24 hours for a full refund. We're confident you'll love it, but we want you to feel completely certain. No questions asked.

No! This is online training and we have participants from around the world. Session times are shown in GMT, but recordings mean you can watch from any timezone if live attendance doesn't work for you.
