Deployment is not adoption
You'll be able to Explain why treating Copilot as standard software fails, and what adoption adds.
Licences don't change behaviour
A licence makes Copilot available. It does not make people use it well. Adoption is the behaviour-change work — enablement, community, communications — that turns availability into habit.
Check what you know
Why isn't deployment the same as adoption?
A licence is access, not a habit. Adoption is the behaviour-change work.

The user enablement framework
You'll be able to Name the phases of Microsoft's user enablement framework.
Four phases
Microsoft's user enablement framework (learning path MS-4007) runs in phases: Get ready (Envision), Onboard & engage, Deliver impact, and Extend & optimize. This stage is the Onboard & engage phase.
The phases
- Get ready / Envision — team, AI Council, scenarios, success measures.
- Onboard & engage — enable users, build community, train.
- Deliver impact — measure value and maximise it.
- Extend & optimize — expand capability, including agents.
Check what you know
Which phase is the adoption/behaviour-change work?
The framework runs Get ready → Onboard & engage → Deliver impact → Extend & optimize.

The Copilot Success Kit
You'll be able to Identify what the Copilot Success Kit provides and how to use it.
Don't build from scratch
The Copilot Success Kit and Adoption Hub provide ready-made onboarding templates, a trainer kit, the Scenario Library and prompt galleries. Use them as your enablement backbone rather than reinventing materials.
Check what you know
What is the Copilot Success Kit?
Use the Success Kit as your enablement backbone — don't reinvent the materials.

Building a champions community
You'll be able to Explain the role of champions and how a champions community drives adoption.
Peers move people
Champions are the recognised 'go-to' people who help peers, share wins and answer questions, often beyond their job role. A champions community spreads adoption through peer learning, not mandates.
Why champions matter
Adoption
early adopters influence peers; their wins are testimonials.
Knowledge sharing
champions mentor and share best practice.
Community
events and forums keep momentum going.
Check what you know
What is a champion?
Champions spread adoption peer-to-peer — stand up a community, not a mandate.

Prompting skills
You'll be able to Explain how the Prompt Gallery builds prompting skill and consistency.
Better prompts, better output
The Copilot Prompt Gallery offers Microsoft-curated prompts plus prompts your users save and share across teams. It builds prompting skill and spreads the prompts that work, for consistency.
Check what you know
What does the Prompt Gallery help users do?
Build prompting skill with the Prompt Gallery — and share the prompts that work.

Communications and launch
You'll be able to Describe the communications that support a Copilot launch.
Tell people, repeatedly
Use the Success Kit's launch-day kit and onboarding communications for managers and users. Adoption needs steady, repeated messaging — what's changing, what's in it for me, where to get help.
Check what you know
What do launch communications need to be?
Launch is a campaign, not an email — steady, repeated, manager-and-user.

A culture of continuous learning
You'll be able to Explain why adoption needs ongoing resources, not one-off training.
Not a single training day
Copilot changes monthly, and habits form over time. Adoption needs ongoing resources — a Viva Engage adoption community, refreshed prompts, recurring sessions — not a one-off training event.
Check what you know
Why is one-off training not enough?
Make learning continuous — a living community beats a one-off training day.

Onboarding by role
You'll be able to Explain why role-based onboarding works better than generic training.
Different roles, different value
A salesperson, a recruiter and a finance analyst use Copilot differently. Role-based onboarding shows each group the scenarios that matter to them, so value lands faster. Use the Scenario Library and Skilling Center content by role.
Check what you know
Why onboard by role?
Show each role its own scenarios — generic training lands slower.
