// About this masterclass

What you'll learn in five days.

Microsoft Office skills appear on 80% of job adverts in Wales. But most people are self-taught, use maybe 10% of what the tools can do, and have never touched the AI features that arrived in 2024.

This five-day masterclass takes you from wherever you are — even total beginner — through to advanced features and Copilot AI across the full Microsoft 365 suite.

By Friday you'll be visibly, measurably more productive than your colleagues. That's the point.
