Australia’s National AI Centre lists Microsoft Copilot training sessions for workers
Microsoft Copilot training sessions in Queensland will cover prompting, agents and workplace use.
Australia’s National AI Centre has listed two in-person Microsoft Copilot training sessions in Queensland aimed at helping participants build practical workplace AI skills.
The first session, Intro to Copilot, is scheduled for 7 July from 10:00 to 11:00 at The Precinct in Fortitude Valley. It is designed as an introductory session covering Microsoft Copilot Chat features, strengths and practical workplace uses for people with personal or business accounts.
The second session, Microsoft Copilot Workshop, will be held later the same day from 17:30 to 19:00 at the same venue. It is intended for people who already have access to Copilot at work but use it infrequently or want to build confidence using the tool.
Both Microsoft Copilot training sessions cover the fundamentals of generative AI, Copilot access, interface features, differences between personal and business versions, chat management, prompting techniques, Pages, Agents and responsible AI use. Participants in the workshop are asked to bring a device for hands-on exercises.
The events are hosted by the Queensland Government, with early-bird tickets priced at AUD 25 and general admission at AUD 40. The National AI Centre notes that registration is handled through third-party websites and that it does not endorse or take responsibility for their content.
Why does it matter?
The training sessions reflect a broader shift from introducing generative AI to helping employees use it effectively in day-to-day work. As tools such as Microsoft Copilot become more widely available, organisations are increasingly investing in practical skills such as prompting, workflow integration and responsible AI use.
The initiative also highlights the growing importance of AI literacy as a workforce capability. Building confidence in using AI tools may help organisations improve productivity while encouraging safer and more informed adoption across different sectors.
