Additionally, it enables users to learn basic operations in combination with each Microsoft 365 application such as Microsoft Teams, Outlook, and Word. This Basic chapter is based on the contents provided in the Copilot NAVI collection of hints offered by JBS to establish use of Copilot for Microsoft 365.
  • Usage
    Teaches usage methods for Copilot for Microsoft 365 by usage scenario. Specifically, it provides hints to improve the accuracy of responses from generative AI using usage scenarios such as checking e-mail/chat, creating a proposal, analyzing order data, and creating meeting materials. JBS plans to keep enhancing video contents corresponding usage scenarios after the release.
  • Prompts
    Teaches the basics and applications of the concept of prompts (instruction and questions entered when using Copilot for Microsoft 365). It also teaches how to use the online app Generative AI Prompt Assistant Web Version which allows anyone to generate prompts to gain highly accurate responses with just a few clicks.

We also offer the Generative AI Prompt Assistant web app which provides around 150 types of prompt templates developed by prompt engineers.

Through the provision of these services, we determined that video teaching material that covers everything from basic operations to usage methods for Copilot for Microsoft 365 was essential, leading to the development and offering of the teaching materials, which condense the knowledge JBS had acquired through the provision of these services.
We adopted AvePoint Curricula, which has a track record as a learning management system (LMS), as the platform for this e-learning service.
