Copilot for Microsoft 365 is now available with most Microsoft 365 licenses, but just because you can go and buy it right now, doesn't mean you should! Microsoft has been telling us for months that there's prep you need to do for Copilot to work well and be safe, but have you done the prep? If you haven't this is your refresher on how to go through Copilot set-up, how to prepare your data, how other Microsoft security and compliance features work with Copilot, and how you should think about developing your team's approach to adoption.

If you're interested in using this new generative AI tool in your business, or just finding out more about how artificial intelligence in Microsoft 365 can help you do more, you'll want to be on top of these preparation steps.

    I purchased m365 Copilot 6 days ago, simply stunning. MS team summary for a chat is amazing. I am never going back. This is the "new" digital divide. - I am calling It!

    Great Video. Good to know that I haven’t f*d up my deployment by purchasing 1 licence for myself to test prior to deploying company wide.
