This isn't really a course. It's a quick, shallow product briefing that defines a few terms. It took 20 minutes, so it's not a huge waste of time, but you won't learn anything actionable.

Who it's for
New hires, non-technical stakeholders, or anyone needing a very basic vocabulary list for Microsoft's AI security tools.
Who should skip it
Anyone with prior security experience, developers, or people looking for practical skills.
Pros
Extremely short; can be completed quickly.
Gives a high-level overview of what the product is supposed to do.
Introduces key terms like 'promptbooks' and 'workspaces'.
Cons
So high-level it's almost useless.
Feels like reading a marketing brochure, not a training module.
Zero hands-on element or even screenshots of the UI in action.
This was on a list of recommended modules to get up to speed on our new security tools. It's more of a glossary than a course. In about 20 minutes, it defines what Security Copilot is and introduces a few key terms. I now know that 'Promptbooks' are saved prompts and 'Workspaces' are for organizing incident investigations. The module distinguishes between the standalone experience and how Copilot embeds in other products like Sentinel and Defender.
That's about it. There's no depth. The content feels like a series of marketing one-pagers stitched together. You read a paragraph describing a feature, then click 'next.' There are no labs, no demos, not even many screenshots to show what the interface actually looks like. The knowledge check at the end just tests if you remember the definitions you just read. It's pure memorization of marketing-approved terminology.
I didn't expect a deep dive, but this was exceptionally shallow. It's a classic example of corporate 'training' that exists to check a box. It technically succeeds in describing what the product is supposed to do, but it does so without providing any real understanding or context. I walked away knowing a few new names for things, but I don't feel any more prepared to actually use the tool or understand its practical implications.
