Microsoft 365, Copilot & Power Platform
Training for Commercial and GCC M365
Hands-on workshops taught by the senior engineers who build these systems in commercial and GCC Microsoft 365. Not a vendor sales deck. Not adapted content.
Microsoft 365, Copilot, and Power Platform training workshops are hands-on, fixed-price sessions taught by the senior engineers who build these systems in commercial and GCC M365. Available for commercial M365 and government GCC teams. Remote or on-site. $2,500-$8,500.
Government and commercial organizations already own Microsoft 365. Most use a fraction of what it can do. These workshops close the gap between owning the licenses and actually deploying Copilot Studio agents, Power Automate workflows, and AI governance inside your environment. Government clients get content calibrated to GCC constraints and real compliance requirements. Commercial clients on M365 Business or Enterprise get the same hands-on depth without the GCC overhead. Every session is taught by the principal engineer, not a vendor trainer reading from a slide deck.
Microsoft 365 Training Workshops: Commercial and GCC
Five focused workshops, each scoped to a specific role and outcome. Government GCC content is built around real compliance constraints. Commercial M365 content covers the same engineering depth without the GCC overhead. Mix and match, or book a custom program built around your team’s actual tools and workflows.
Copilot Studio for IT Administrators
IT admins & engineers · 1 day · Remote or on-site · Hands-on labs in your tenant
Build, govern, and deploy Copilot Studio agents inside your M365 environment. GCC sessions cover boundary constraints and data residency enforcement. Commercial sessions cover the same agent architecture and governance with a wider connector catalog. Generative orchestration, tool routing, and audit logging covered in both.
- Agent architecture and generative orchestration in your environment
- Tool routing and approved connector configuration
- Audit logging, monitoring, and agent governance setup
- Data residency and boundary enforcement (commercial and GCC)
- Hands-on deployment and testing in your actual tenant
Power Automate for Commercial and GCC Workflows
IT staff & power users · 1 day · Remote or on-site · commercial and GCC M365
Graph API-backed automation with full audit trails. Government sessions are calibrated to GCC connector restrictions and compliance audit requirements. Commercial sessions cover the same engineering patterns with the broader connector catalog available in M365 Business and Enterprise. Approval chains and maintainable flows your staff can own after handoff.
- Graph API connector patterns for government automation
- Approval chain and escalation logic design
- Compliance-aware flow documentation and testing
- SharePoint and Teams automation patterns
- Ownership, maintenance, and handoff best practices
AI Governance & Responsible Use for M365
IT leadership & governance staff · Half to full day · commercial and GCC
Purview, data protection posture, and responsible-AI policy for M365 deployments. Government sessions address FedRAMP boundary enforcement and GCC-specific DLP constraints. Commercial sessions cover the same governance fundamentals in standard M365 environments. What to allow, what to block, and how to prove it in both.
- Microsoft Purview DLP and sensitivity labeling for AI contexts
- Copilot data residency enforcement (commercial and GCC)
- Acceptable use policy development for M365 AI tools
- Audit trail requirements and evidence collection
- Risk assessment framework for AI in your environment
Microsoft 365 Copilot for End Users
End users & teams · Half day
Practical, role-based adoption training that turns licensed-but-unused Copilot into daily productivity, with government data-handling baked in.
- Copilot in Teams, Outlook, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint
- Role-based prompt patterns for government use cases
- Safe data-handling practices and what not to share
- Getting consistent results: prompting fundamentals
- Practical exercises built around real government workflows
Custom Workshop

Scoped to your tenant, your workflows, and your goals. Bring the problem; leave with hands-on capability and documentation.
- Pre-workshop discovery call to scope content and labs
- Curriculum built around your actual tools and live workflows
- Hands-on labs inside your GCC or commercial M365 environment
- Custom reference documentation for your specific setup

Training Engagement Pricing
Fixed price. Hands-on labs in your actual tenant. Staff-ready documentation included. Pricing scales with group size and scope. Most workshops fall within micro-purchase and simplified-acquisition thresholds.
Built Different From Vendor Slide Decks
Taught by the Builder
Led by senior engineers who deploy these systems in production, not a trainer reading slides.
Environment-Native Examples
GCC sessions run under actual government cloud constraints. Commercial sessions use real M365 Business and Enterprise configurations. No generic sandbox demos.
Your Actual Tenant
Hands-on labs in your environment, not a sandbox that doesn’t match reality.
Documentation You Keep
Staff-ready reference material handed off at the end of every workshop.
Training Workshop Questions
Can you deliver on-site?
Yes, on-site anywhere in the U.S., or remote. Remote is the default and keeps cost down; on-site is available for groups that benefit from in-person hands-on labs.
How large can a group be?
Hands-on labs work best at 6-15 participants. Larger adoption sessions can scale higher; custom workshops are scoped to your specific group size and configuration.
Can this be paid from a training budget?
Yes. Workshops are fixed-price and most fall within micro-purchase ($10,000) and simplified-acquisition thresholds, so they're straightforward to fund from existing training or professional-development budgets without a full contracting action.
Do attendees need licenses?
For hands-on labs in your tenant, attendees need the relevant Microsoft 365, Copilot, or Power Platform licenses. Awareness and adoption sessions can run without per-user Copilot licenses.
Do you provide materials?
Yes. Every workshop includes staff-ready documentation that attendees keep. Materials are tailored to your tenant configuration, not generic vendor handouts.
Can you tailor content to our agency?
That's the default. A pre-workshop discovery call scopes the curriculum to your tenant setup, your active workflows, and the outcomes that matter most to your team. Nothing is off-the-shelf.
A training workshop is the low-risk way to see how Puget Sound AI operates before committing to a larger engagement. Government clients often start with a half-day Copilot Studio workshop, then proceed to a GCC AI Jumpstart. Commercial M365 clients typically move from a workshop to an AI Readiness Review, then a scoped build engagement.
