Why Train in Microsoft 365 Copilot and AI Assistants for Business
Artificial intelligence has integrated in just a few months into the tools you use every day. Microsoft 365 Copilot is now available in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and Teams. ChatGPT and its equivalents have become writing, summarisation and analysis assistants accessible in seconds. Yet the majority of professionals still exploit only a fraction of these capabilities. Training is the step that bridges occasional use and structured utilisation that generates real, measurable time savings.
This Microsoft 365 Copilot and AI productivity training addresses a concrete reality: Swiss companies that adopt these tools in an organised way report significant productivity gains, but only when their teams have been properly trained. Without a method, professionals under-use Copilot, produce inconsistent results and lose confidence. With the right training, the same tools become genuine performance accelerators.
Boosting Productivity with Generative AI: the Universal Entry Point
The training Using Generative AI to Boost Your Productivity is designed for any professional wishing to integrate AI into their daily workflow, regardless of their role. It covers the fundamentals of working with AI assistants: writing effective prompts, handling repetitive tasks, document summarisation, decision-support and lightweight workflow automation. This training requires no technical prerequisites and is suitable for managers, assistants, sales professionals and HR managers alike.
Microsoft 365 Copilot Training: from Immersion to Certification
For organisations deploying Microsoft 365 Copilot, ITTA offers a complete learning path. The Copilot Immersion Experience (MS-4021) provides hands-on operational use of Copilot across Microsoft 365 applications, with concrete exercises applied to real business scenarios. The training Explore Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat (MS-4023) focuses specifically on Copilot Chat for collaboration, information retrieval and content generation in Teams and Microsoft 365.
For IT managers and Copilot champions responsible for supporting teams, the training Copilot for Microsoft 365 User Enablement Specialist (MS-4007) provides the tools to structure an internal adoption programme. The training Empower Your Workforce with Microsoft 365 Copilot Use Cases (MS-4004) complements this with practical examples by department.
Work Smarter with AI Training (AI-3025)
The training Work Smarter with AI (AI-3025) takes a cross-functional approach to identifying automatable tasks in your role and establishing a routine for using AI assistants. This training is particularly well suited to teams in the midst of digital transition who want to structure their AI usage in a coherent and sustainable way.
Writing, Analysis and Presentations: the Core Use Cases
The most frequent use cases in organisations are document drafting, data analysis and presentation creation. Microsoft 365 Copilot excels in all three: it writes first drafts, reformulates, summarises, extracts key information from lengthy documents and generates slides from data or brief notes. Mastering these features in Word, Excel and PowerPoint concretely transforms the way teams work.
For users who want an introduction to the Microsoft 365 environment as a whole, the training Introduction to Microsoft 365 and AI Administration (AB-900) provides an overview of available services and their integration with AI capabilities.
How to Integrate AI into Your Daily Work Routine
The most useful training is one that can be applied immediately. Our trainers consistently draw on concrete cases from real Swiss business environments: drafting emails in French and English, summarising Teams meeting notes, creating dashboards in Excel with Copilot’s assistance, reformulating commercial proposals or HR communications. Every participant leaves with a structured method tested against their own use cases.
Going Further After the AI Productivity Training
Once the fundamentals are mastered, several paths are open to you. If your role involves large-scale content creation, our Content Creation with AI domain covers advanced writing, Midjourney and AI video. If you want to automate complete processes with AI agents and Power Automate, explore our training in Automating Processes with AI. For profession-specific use cases, our AI by Profession training covers the use cases specific to each function.
