The Copilot AI Builders Workshop

October 21 @ 11:00 am - 3:00 pm

$150 – $200

Bring your laptop. Learn and implement workflow and agent design.

What jobs should you build an AI agent for? In this workshop we’ll map the workflow, design and build working agents inside your own Microsoft Copilot Studio.

Date
Wednesday 21 October 2026
Location
Club Macquarie, Argenton
Hosted by
Lake Macquarie Business

What we’ll cover

  • Designing a workflow for AI: the work worth handing over, the steps that stay yours, and why skipping this is where most AI attempts stall.
  • The four-part brief that gets an agent built right instead of being slightly off every time you use it.
  • The data layer of an agent – and how to keep data safe.
  • The line between what an agent runs and what stays your call – so you lead the tools instead of chasing them.
  • Where your business sits on the AI adoption curve, what good looks like in 2026 – and the one stage almost everyone gets stuck at.

Walk out with

  • A working agent built in your own Copilot studio.
  • Workflow design skills you can apply to repetitive workflows in your daily work.
  • Safe AI and connecting agents to data.
  • A clear picture of where AI can assist you every day – and where you stay in control.

To take part: bring your own laptop and an active Microsoft Copilot licence that lets you build agents in the Copilot app (Microsoft 365 Copilot Premium). You’ll build in your own business environment on the day.
