Empower your administrative teams to use AI safely. Our half-day, in-person training sessions are designed specifically for charity staff, focusing on strict UK GDPR compliance, reducing AI anxiety, and saving hours on daily admin. We offer Microsoft Copilot training charities UK can trust to help their teams adapt confidently to new technologies.
Non-profit teams and voluntary sector organisations across Hertfordshire face constant pressure to deliver greater community impact with limited administrative capacity. While Microsoft 365 Copilot offers transformative productivity gains, many charity workers struggle to integrate AI safely into their daily routines.
Our Hands-On Microsoft Copilot Training Programme is designed specifically for Hertfordshire charities, housing associations, and grant-making trusts. We help your staff master daily prompt engineering, custom instructions, and contextual data retrieval—ensuring your deployment remains fully aligned with UK GDPR and non-profit governance standards.
Audience
Who Should Attend:
Grant officers, administrators, and support staff looking to streamline everyday tasks like summarising meeting minutes or drafting communications.
The Deliverable:
Every attendee receives a custom ‘Copilot Prompt Cheat Sheet’ tailored specifically to third-sector administration that builds on our Copilot Notebook operating model.
Agenda
- Safe AI Usage & Data Privacy: Clear guidelines on UK GDPR boundaries and what data must never be entered into open LLMs.
- Eliminating Admin Friction: Live exercises on drafting emails, summarising long PDF reports, and organising meeting minutes.
- Introduction to Application Parsing: Hands-on prompt engineering to help staff quickly extract key themes from standard grant applications.
