Creating Project Management Agents in Copilot Training Course

Formats ⟩  Live Virtual: 4 hrs./1 Day  |  In-Person: 6 hrs./1 Day

Creating AI Project Management Agents with Copilot equips participants with the skills to design, build, and deploy AI agents that enhance project planning, execution, and decision-making. Participants will explore how AI agents support core project management functions such as scope, scheduling, risk, communication, and resource management. The course covers agent architecture, workflow design, and best practices for creating reliable, secure, and effective agents. Through hands-on labs and real-world scenarios, participants will build and apply agents to common project challenges. By the end, learners will be able to develop and scale AI agents that improve project efficiency and outcomes.

Learning Objectives

  • Explain how AI agents support project management workflows.
  • Design and build project management AI agents using Copilot.
  • Apply best practices for reliability, security, and governance.
  • Use AI agents across core project management domains.
