Our Copilot Prompt‑a‑thon is a hands‑on, interactive workshop designed to help you and your team write better prompts, solve real business challenges, and actually use Copilot with confidence.

A Prompt‑a‑thon is an interactive Copilot workshop and hack session where you’ll learn the art of prompting – how to ask Copilot the right questions, in the right way, to get meaningful, accurate, and useful results.
You’ll work through real‑world scenarios, collaborate with others, and see first‑hand what Microsoft Copilot can do when it’s prompted properly – and where its limits are.
This session is ideal for organisations that:
No technical background needed – just curiosity and a willingness to get stuck in.

Everything is grounded in real examples and live use, based on Microsoft’s Prompt-a-thon framework.
