Using Copilot in Excel
A focused 4-hour class that shows you exactly how to use Microsoft Copilot inside Excel — from writing formulas with plain English to analyzing data without pivot tables.
Live instructor. Small class. Real spreadsheets. You'll leave with skills you can put to work the same afternoon.
Why take this course?
Copilot is already inside Excel for most Microsoft 365 users — but most people don't know how to use it effectively. This course closes that gap in half a day.
Save hours every week
Tasks that used to take 30 minutes — building formulas, cleaning data, summarizing tables — take seconds with Copilot. You'll feel the difference immediately.
Analyze data without the complexity
Ask Copilot to spot trends, flag anomalies, or summarize a dataset in plain English. No pivot tables, no advanced functions — just answers.
Practical from the first hour
Every exercise uses real-world spreadsheet scenarios. You follow along with Copilot active, so you build muscle memory — not just notes.
What you'll learn
The course covers the core Copilot capabilities that Excel users reach for most — taught in the order you'd actually use them.
- Use plain-English prompts to generate formulas and functions instantly
- Summarize and analyze large datasets without pivot tables
- Automate repetitive tasks — no macros or VBA required
- Spot trends and anomalies with AI-powered insights
- Clean and transform messy data in seconds
Course details
Who should attend?
This course is designed for anyone who uses Excel regularly and wants to get more done in less time. You don't need to be an Excel expert — you just need to be comfortable opening a spreadsheet.
- Analysts who build reports and want to speed up the process
- Finance and operations professionals who live in spreadsheets
- Managers who need quick data summaries without the manual work
- Anyone with Microsoft 365 who hasn't explored Copilot yet
Not sure if this is right for you?
If you use Excel more than twice a week, this course will pay for itself in the first day back at your desk.
The only prerequisite is basic Excel familiarity — knowing how to open a file, enter data, and navigate cells. Copilot experience is not required.
