CoPilot for Excel at USI

Description

Work Smarter in Excel with Copilot

Copilot for Excel brings AI directly into one of the most widely used workplace tools, helping professionals work faster, reduce errors, and gain clearer insights from their data. In this hands-on 90-minute workshop, participants will learn how Copilot can simplify common Excel challenges — from cleaning and restructuring data to creating and fixing formulas using natural language.

Participants will see how AI can transform unstructured information from PDFs or text files into clean, usable Excel formats, optimize formulas that aren’t working as expected, and recommend best-practice ways to organize data for analysis and reporting. This session is ideal for professionals who want to spend less time troubleshooting spreadsheets and more time using data to support better decisions.
