What if you could profile, clean, and transform data with just a few natural language prompts? What if you could write entire pipelines, clean/profile datasets, train Machine Learning models, generate synthetic data, generate code (in multiple languages), and even build reports - all WITHOUT writing a single line of code? With Microsoft Copilot, that’s now possible - and in this course, you’ll learn exactly how.
Whether you're a data analyst, business user, or an aspiring AI-savvy professional, this is the only course you need to truly leverage Microsoft Copilot and M365 Copilot for your data-related work. We'll learn how to use Copilot in Excel (Formulas, Python based analysis, filtering) as well as Microsoft Fabric (SQL code for databases, pipelines, data Warehouse/Lakehouse, writing code in Notebooks) and so much more without writing a single line of code!
Why This Course Stands Out
Built for the New Era of Work: While most Copilot courses focus on Office productivity tools like Word and PowerPoint, this one takes you deeper - into the core of data quality, preparation, transformation, and engineering. This is where Copilot truly shines. Be it a an Excel worksheet, or Big Data pipelines within Microsoft Fabric, we'll learn how to use Copilot to simplify our tasks.
Learn by Doing, Not Just Watching: Each module is hands-on. You’ll interact with real datasets, write prompts, debug AI outputs, and explore how to guide Copilot to get high-quality results. From data profiling to synthetic data generation, this course shows exactly how to make Copilot work for you.
AI-Powered Data Engineering, Demystified: Understand the why behind Copilot’s suggestions. Learn how to control, guide, and refine it using prompt engineering so you get better, faster results - every single time.
