• Create and Improve Content:  Teach users how to use Copilot to draft, refine, and enhance content across Microsoft 365 apps including generating documents, presentations, and emails.
• The successful candidate will prepare a training plan, and then deliver the training.  Microsoft Learning Academy for Copilot can be leveraged for content, along with the many other publicly available materials.
