Course Details

Copilot in Excel represents a new way of working, using natural language to perform tasks that once required advanced formula knowledge or manual effort. In this session, you’ll explore how Copilot can support every stage of your Excel workflow: from cleaning and preparing messy data, to producing reports, and writing formulas. You’ll see how Copilot helps you explain calculations, perform routine Excel tasks, find solutions to complex Excel problems, and generate insights faster — all while staying within the familiar Excel environment.

  • How Copilot in Excel works and what makes it different from ChatGPT.
