The Challenge: Bridging the Gap Between Software Acquisition and Adoption
Singapore Pools knew that Generative AI could change the way they work. So, they made a big move and invested in Microsoft 365 Copilot licenses for their team. But here is the reality: buying the software is the easy part.
The real challenge is getting people to actually use it. Singapore Pools needed a hands-on corporate Generative AI training program to bridge the gap between having the tool and knowing how to use it to save time every day.
Why Heicoders Academy: A Structured and Strategic Approach
Singapore Pools sought a training partner capable of delivering more than just a basic software tutorial. They wanted a partner who could make Copilot upskilling accessible and relevant to their team's actual jobs.
Heicoders Academy was selected for its ability to design a customized, step-by-step training methodology. Rather than overwhelming employees with complex technical jargon, Heicoders focused on practical, actionable skills that could be immediately applied to their daily workflows. The academy's commitment to post-training support and implementation consultation further solidified their position as the ideal partner for this large-scale initiative.
The Solution: A Customised Microsoft 365 Copilot Training Program
Heicoders Academy developed a tailored training program specifically designed to maximize the utility of Microsoft 365 Copilot for Singapore Pools' employees. The curriculum was structured to build confidence and competence progressively, focusing on:
- Foundational Prompt Engineering: Teaching employees the essential skills required to communicate effectively with Copilot, ensuring they could generate accurate, relevant, and useful outputs.
- Leveraging Agentic Capabilities: Exploring the advanced, autonomous features of Copilot to automate repetitive tasks, streamline data analysis, and enhance collaborative workflows.
