Reviewer's verdict

It's a free product tour. Use it to see what Microsoft *wants* you to do with Copilot, but don't expect to learn how to do anything yourself.

Who should skip it

Anyone trying to learn finance or build real skills.

Pros

  • Completely free to access.
  • Gives a quick, high-level overview of possible Copilot prompts.
  • No setup required, runs in the browser.

Cons

  • No actual software access, just a simulation.
  • Exercises are 'fill-in-the-blank' with provided prompts.
  • Doesn't teach the underlying finance concepts at all.
  • Feels more like a product demo than a training module.

The exercises just give you the exact prompt to copy and paste. 'Analyze the profitability of our new product line by quarter' goes in, a fake report comes out. There’s no thinking involved, no trying to figure out a better prompt, and certainly no access to a real Copilot instance. It's just a series of screenshots and text boxes that pretend to be the tool.

I get that it's free, and I appreciate seeing the *intended* use cases for finance without having to buy a license. But calling this 'training' is a stretch. The vendor contract analysis was literally just feeding a PDF to a chatbot prompt. I finished the whole thing in about an hour, mostly clicking 'Next'. It's an interactive brochure, not a course. It passed the time, but I didn't learn a skill I could put on a resume.
