A glorified user manual. Skim it for a quick feature tour, but don't expect to learn any real skills.

Who it's for
Business users curious about what the Copilot button does in each Office app.
Who should skip it
Anyone looking for hands-on practice or advanced prompting techniques.
Pros
Quick overview of Copilot's features across Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc.
Completely free to access.
Clear screenshots of the user interface.
Cons
No hands-on labs; it's a product tour, not training.
Content is very basic, like reading help documentation.
Doesn't teach how to write *effective* prompts, just suggests generic ones.
The 'Build effective presentations' unit is a series of screenshots. It shows you the Copilot button and tells you to click it. This isn't training, it's a feature list. I wanted to turn meeting notes into a deck for stakeholders, not just be told 'AI can do it'. It never shows you the messy middle part. What about a prompt that fails? What if the data is weird? This is just happy-path marketing material, not a real course.
