Get ready to build your first real AI agent. The Copilot Studio Agent Academy is a self‑paced learning path designed to help makers, developers, and anyone curious about AI turn ideas into working agents using Microsoft Copilot Studio. Instead of theory, you’ll get practical, hands-on guidance you can apply immediately. If you’ve been wondering how to build something useful with AI—this is where you start.
What’s inside
Agent Academy is a hands-on, role-based learning journey that progresses through three carefully crafted levels:
- Recruit (available now): Master the foundations: topics, building, testing, and basic logic. This is your bootcamp.
- Operative: Level up your skills to enhance and extend your agent’s capabilities. Time to get sophisticated.
- Commander (early 2026): Dive deep into advanced topics like Azure integration, security, and enterprise-scale deployment. This is where you become the expert everyone comes to for answers.
Every module includes guided labs, all curated by Microsoft’s Power Platform Advocacy team.
What you’ll learn
Agent Academy is 100% free and self-paced. You don’t need to sign up, log in, or jump through hoops, just visit the site and start learning on your own time. By the time you complete the Recruit level, you’ll know how to:
- Set up your environment and access Copilot Studio
- Build your first agent using topics and trigger phrases
- Enable generative answers and knowledge sources
- Test and publish your agent in Microsoft Teams so people can actually use it
These aren’t just technical skills, they’re career-building capabilities that organizations are actively seeking right now.
