Overview
You have built a few basic agents in Copilot Chat. This is the next stage. Over one full day in Copilot Studio you will build ‘Scout’, a pre-meeting briefing agent that grows from a simple assistant into something autonomous: it checks your calendar, researches who you are meeting, writes a briefing, and sends it on Teams before the meeting starts. You will add knowledge, connect tools, and set triggers so it works without being asked. Still no code. The whole day is built around this one running example, so every new piece builds on the last.

Why TrainAI exists
TrainAI was built by Heather Murray – BBC and UK government AI advisor, regularly featured in Forbes, and founder of AI for Non-Techies.
After years of delivering AI training to organisations like Johnson & Johnson, GSK, Toyota, and the House of Lords, she kept hearing the same thing from other trainers: “I know AI matters, but I don’t have the time or the confidence to build courses from scratch.”
