Microsoft Copilot

Live workshops are exclusively available to Maven Pro subscribers. To register for this workshop you'll first need to create an account.
You've heard about Copilot in Excel, maybe even tried it a few times, but it's not always clear when to use it, what it's good at, or whether you can trust what it produces. A lot of people are in that same spot: they know AI can help, but they haven't figured out how to fit it into real work yet.
In this session, you'll see how Copilot works in practice across common Excel tasks, including cleaning data, building analyses, and creating charts. You'll leave with a clear sense of where Copilot adds value, where it doesn't, and how to work with it in a way that keeps you in control.
What you'll learn
Understand what Copilot in Excel can and can't do
Knowing the boundaries of the tool is just as useful as knowing its features — it helps you decide when to use it and when to rely on your own skills.
Use Copilot to clean, analyze, and visualize data
Work through a real-world, hands-on project using Copilot for data cleanup, analysis and visualization.
Apply best practices for prompting, model selection, and validating outputs
Good prompts get better results, but the skill that matters most is knowing how to check what Copilot gives you before you act on it.
Compare Copilot and Claude for common Excel tasks
See how two AI tools approach the same spreadsheet work differently, so you can make an informed choice about which one fits your situation.
