The model
The Copilot implementation planMeasure → Train → Sustain
Three steps, in this order. Without the first, you don't know where you started. Without the third, it was just a nice afternoon.
Measure
Five minutes, no assessment feel.
Everyone starts with the same short baseline: role, work context, knowledge level and self-assessment. No trick questions, no score to hit. The result is a starting point, not a verdict.
- Four axes, about five minutes to complete.
- Results visible per team; per person, only for that person.
- At the end of the program, the same measurement again, that is your difference.
BoundaryFive minutes per employee, no IT project. You can start tomorrow.
Train
- 1. Basics
- 2. Prompt
- 3. Judging
- 4. Word
- 5. Excel
- 6. Teams
Black = moved forward based on the baseline.
The order adapts, the content does not.
Based on the baseline, the order of modules shifts. Someone who already gets prompting starts with judging output. A beginner starts with the basics. Everyone covers the same modules, just not in the same order or at the same depth.
- Modules of 10 to 30 minutes, done between two meetings.
- Assignments in your own work context, not a practice environment.
- Classroom or e-learning, same content, different pace (see below).
BoundaryStudy time is a guideline, not an obligation. You choose when to do a block.
Sustain
60 days. Orange = assignment unlocks after the certificate.
The real work starts after the certificate.
For 60 days, repeats return of exactly the parts that went wrong, plus assignments that only unlock days after the certificate. Behavior changes over weeks, not in a single session.
- Spaced repetition on what demonstrably didn't stick.
- Weekly usage measurement at team level, not at individual level.
- A follow-up measurement after 60 days, compared with the baseline.
BoundaryA team sees its own progress, and you see per team where the gain is.
Classroom or e-learning?
04 · The format
The content is the same in all three formats. The difference lies in pace, schedule and cost. Measuring and sustaining run around it in every case, you don't choose those separately.
With a trainer, live
Classroom
A half day or two with a trainer, in person or via Teams. You work on your own files and questions are answered right away. Strong when a team needs to start together or when there is resistance.
- 6 to 12 participants per group
- Fixed date, scheduled time
- Questions answered on the spot
- More expensive per person
On your own, at your own pace
E-learning
The same modules, split into 10 to 30 minute blocks. You do them whenever it suits you, and the order follows your baseline. Strong for large numbers and for people who can't free up a half day.
- No group size, no schedule
- Order differs per person
- Repetition built in
- Requires self-starting
E-learning plus a session
Blended
The basics via e-learning, followed by one live session per team on your own practice. The session is no longer about buttons but about how you rearrange the work. This is what most organizations choose.
- Less live time, more effect
- Session at team level
- Starting level already aligned
- Scheduling still needed
| Comparison | Classroom | E-learning | Blended |
|---|---|---|---|
| Duration | 1 half day | 60 days | 4 weeks |
| Time per person | 4 hours in a row | about 3 hours spread out | about 3 hours plus 90 min |
| Scheduling needed | Yes, for everyone | No | One session per team |
| Order tailored | No, group pace | Yes | Yes |
| Cost per person | ±€270 per day | €59 to €149 per participant | Custom |
| Strong for | Resistance, small group | Large numbers | Most organizations |
Not sure which format? Start with the baseline.
It takes five minutes per person and shows whether you need a half day or just a nudge.
