Copilot and Gemini at Work: the course that teaches you to use your office AI assistant, and to check what it gives you
Your organisation switched on an AI assistant in your email, documents, spreadsheets and meetings. This self-paced course is organised by the work you do, not by menu. One switch sets every lesson to Microsoft 365 Copilot or Gemini in Google Workspace. You practise on a Suite Workbench where each draft has something right and something wrong, and the lab scores whether you caught it. About 6 hours over 3 weeks.
- Seven 45-minute modules: what the assistant can see, inbox and calendar, documents, spreadsheets, presentations, meetings and chat, and a weekly routine
- One switch for both suites: every lesson shows your suite’s names and steps, and you can change it at any time
- Five Suite Workbench labs, an Inspector lab on file sharing and a Scenario Sim; every lab scores whether you checked the draft before using it
- A before-and-after assessment, booster questions, a credential with Open Badge 2.0 and three Pro Kits. No coding

What is the Bodhih Copilot and Gemini at Work course?
Bodhih Copilot and Gemini at Work is a self-paced online course for office workers whose organisation has switched on Microsoft 365 Copilot or Gemini in Google Workspace. In about 6 hours it teaches what the assistant can read, and how to get usable drafts for email, documents, spreadsheets, slides and meeting recaps, then check them. One switch sets every lesson to either suite. Learners practise on a Suite Workbench and take a baseline and a final assessment.

Interest
Why the assistant your company paid for is barely used, or used without checking
“It wrote a confident summary. One number in it was wrong.”
Drafts read well whether or not they are right. A recap can assign an action to the wrong person, a total can quietly include a cancelled booking, and a summary can leave out the one condition that mattered.
“It found a file I should never have been able to see.”
The assistant can use what you can open. Years of loose sharing, old links and open folders become visible the day it is switched on, and most people have never looked at who can see their files.
Who it is for
Who this Copilot and Gemini training is for
Office workers with a new assistant
You have the button in your inbox and your documents. You will learn which tasks to hand it, how to ask, and a short check for each kind of draft before it leaves your hands.
Managers and team leads
Your team’s output now includes assistant drafts. You will learn what to expect from recaps, summaries and analyses, and how to set a simple team habit for checking and for confirming actions.
HR, finance, sales, marketing, operations and service staff
A role lens switches the examples to your work, so the inbox, the proposal, the sales sheet and the update deck look like your own.
Organisations rolling out an assistant
You bought licences and need them used well. Picture every licensed person checking their own file sharing in Module 1, before the assistant surfaces something it should not.
This course is not for IT administrators who configure and govern the assistant (the vendor’s admin documentation is the right source), or for people who want every menu and feature of one product; it teaches working habits that hold when the features change.
Why now: the evidence
The time savings are real on average, and they depend on how people use the assistant
Four dated findings and statements, each linked to its source.
- 7,137 workers
In a six-month randomised field experiment across 66 large firms, workers who used an office AI assistant spent less time on email each week and finished documents moderately faster, with no significant change in time spent in meetings. Three of the four authors worked at Microsoft.
Dillon, Jaffe, Immorlica and Stanton, “Shifting Work Patterns with Generative AI”, NBER Working Paper 33795, May 2025 - 26 minutes a day
In a UK government trial with 20,000 civil servants from 30 September to 31 December 2024, participants saved an average of 26 minutes a day when using the assistant, by the trial’s own measures.
UK Government Digital Service, “Microsoft 365 Copilot Experiment: Cross-Government Findings Report”, June 2025 - View permission
Microsoft states that its assistant only surfaces organisational data that the individual user has at least permission to view, and advises reviewing permissions and over-sharing first.

Desire
What you can do at the end: usable drafts, checked, in the work you already do
Imagine Monday’s inbox triaged in ten minutes, with replies in your own tone and every date and promise checked before you press send. The course measures you at the start and the end on parallel forms, so you and your employer can see what changed.
Know what the assistant can see
Explain the one rule (it can use what you can open), find files shared too widely and fix them before you rely on the assistant.
Handle inbox and calendar
Triage a full inbox, draft replies that sound like you, and schedule without errors, checking dates, names and promises before sending.
Draft documents from sources
Draft from named files, rewrite for a reader and summarise without losing the point, then check each claim against its source.
Work with spreadsheets
Ask for formulas, analysis and charts in plain words and test the result on rows you can check by hand.
Build presentations
Turn a document into a deck with one message per slide, and correct the structure, emphasis and numbers the draft got wrong.
Catch up on meetings and chat
Use recaps and action lists, check them against what people said, and confirm actions and owners before you act.
Keep a weekly routine
Search across your own files, set up a simple custom assistant for one recurring task, and decide when not to use the assistant.
Curriculum
Copilot and Gemini course curriculum: 9 stages from baseline to credential
The pathway runs in order: a baseline assessment, seven modules (what the assistant can see; inbox and calendar; documents; spreadsheets; presentations; meetings and chat; search, simple custom assistants and a weekly routine), each with a hands-on lab and boosters two and seven days later, and a final assessment.

Copilot in PowerPoint and Gemini in Slides
From document to deck in The ten-minute update: one message per slide, and numbers checked against the source.
Meeting recaps in Teams and Google Meet
Recaps, actions and catching up in The meeting you missed, then a full week of choices in the Scenario Sim The week with the assistant.
More than the course
Beyond the modules
What comes with the course, and what the practice is like.
The Suite Workbench
A practice screen for email, documents, spreadsheets, slides and meetings at Larkfield Events (fictional). You choose how to ask, read the draft and decide what to fix before it goes anywhere. It is not the real product and not a copy of either interface.
One course for a mixed organisation
Teams on Microsoft 365 and teams on Google Workspace take the same course and share the same habits; each person sets the switch once.
Three Pro Kits included
Spreadsheet Superpowers, The Team Meeting Operating System and The AI-Fluent Professional.
For teams
Company seats (minimum 10) with reporting on each learner’s progress and before-and-after scores, so you can see whether the licences are being used well.

How this differs from a typical office AI assistant course
| What is compared | A typical office AI assistant course | Copilot and Gemini at Work at Bodhih |
|---|---|---|
| Suites | One suite only. | Both, through one switch: Microsoft 365 Copilot or Gemini in Google Workspace. |
| Organised by | App and feature: a video per button. | The work you do: inbox, documents, numbers, slides, meetings and a weekly routine. |
| Practice | Watch, then try it yourself if you have a licence. | A Suite Workbench with scripted drafts that contain something right and something wrong; no licence needed for the labs. |
| Checking | A reminder to “review the output”. | A specific check for each kind of draft, scored in every lab. |
| Measurement | A completion certificate. | A baseline and a final on parallel forms; your before and after shows on the credential. |
| Honest limit | Low-priced video libraries; the vendors document new features first. | The Workbench is a practice screen, not the real products or a copy of either interface, and features vary by plan and change often. |

Copilot and Gemini at Work: questions, answered
Straight answers on time, price, tools and the credential. If yours is not here, ask us and you will have a reply the same working day.
Who is this Copilot and Gemini course for?
Any office worker whose organisation has switched on Microsoft 365 Copilot or Gemini in Google Workspace: managers, HR, finance, sales, marketing, operations and customer service staff, assistants and coordinators. A role lens with seven options switches the examples to your work. No coding.
Does it cover Microsoft 365 Copilot or Gemini in Google Workspace?
Both. One switch at the start sets every lesson, lab and job aid to your suite’s names and steps, and you can change it at any time. A mixed organisation can put everyone through the same course.
Do I need a Copilot or Gemini licence to take the course?
Not for the lessons and labs, which run on a practice screen inside the course. You do need the assistant your employer has switched on for the short at-work task in each module. The course does not include a licence for either product.
Is the practice done in the real Copilot or Gemini?
No. The Suite Workbench is a practice screen with scripted drafts, built so that each draft contains something right and something wrong and the lab can score whether you caught it. It is not the real product and not a copy of either interface. You use the real assistant in the at-work tasks.
How long does it take?
About 6 hours: seven modules of about 45 minutes and an 18-minute assessment at the start and at the end. Most people finish in about 3 weeks at two or three modules a week. Short booster questions arrive two and seven days after each module.
What can Copilot or Gemini see in my files?
In general, what you can open: the assistant works with the files, emails, chats and meetings your account already has permission to view. That is why Module 1 starts with a ten-minute check of your own sharing. Exact behaviour depends on your plan and your administrator’s settings, so the module tells you what to raise with your IT team.
Will the course go out of date when features change?
Menus and feature names change often, and the vendors will always document new features first. The course teaches working habits that last: what to ask for, what to check in each kind of draft, and when not to use the assistant. Bodhih reviews the suite-specific steps every quarter.
Is this an official Microsoft or Google course?
No. Bodhih is an independent training company and this course is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Microsoft or Google. Microsoft 365 and Copilot are trademarks of Microsoft; Gemini and Google Workspace are trademarks of Google. It does not prepare you for any vendor certification.
Will I get a certificate?
Yes. When you pass the final assessment (70%, with up to three attempts), you receive the Bodhih Copilot and Gemini at Work credential with an Open Badge 2.0, a verify page and a PDF that shows your before-and-after result. It is a Bodhih credential, not a vendor or university qualification.
Is there a launch price?
Yes. Until 10 January 2027 the price shown on this page is a launch price, about half the regular price. After that date the regular price applies.
Can we buy it for the whole company?
Yes. Company seats are $37 each with a minimum of 10, with reporting on progress and before-and-after scores. Write to solutions@bodhih.com or call +91 99000 11601 for seats or a rollout.
