About us

The South African Microsoft 365 User Group is for technical folk who would like to share and learn from each other, on their experiences with Windows 10, Office 365 and supporting technologies.

We meet on the third Wednesday of every month to talk about all things Microsoft 365, and using the out of the box tools available from Microsoft.

The M365 UG is dedicated to empowering every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more. We seek to provide a respectful, friendly, professional experience for everyone, regardless of gender, sexual orientation, physical appearance, disability, age, race or religion. We do not tolerate any behavior that is harassing or degrading to any individual, in any form. Individuals are responsible for knowing and abiding by these standards. We encourage everyone to assist in creating a welcoming and safe environment.
Please report any concerns, suspicious or disruptive activity or behavior to the Organisers.
We reserve the right to refuse admittance to or remove any person from the usergroup at any time at its discretion.

    Copilot Zero to Hero: Agent Edition (Season 2)

    Build real-world Copilot agents, from idea to production

    Copilot in Microsoft 365 is great. But the real magic starts when you https://copilotzerotohero.co.za/build your own agents.

    In this 10-part, hands-on series we’ll go from zero to shipping Copilot agents using Microsoft Copilot Studio – with a few deep dives into Azure Foundry for those advanced “I need more power” scenarios.
    Across 10 bi‑weekly sessions (starting 5 May), you’ll learn how to:

    • Design high‑value Copilot agents for real business scenarios
    • Configure your tenant, environments, and governance for safe building
    • Build, test, and deploy agents in Copilot Studio
    • Connect agents to your data and APIs
    • Extend Copilot Studio with Azure AI Foundry for specialized agents
    • Apply security, compliance, and lifecycle management in the real world
    • Drive user adoption and measure impact so your agents don’t die in a demo

    This series is 70% focused on Copilot Studio builders: makers, power users, and developers who want to move from “playing with prompts” to “shipping production agents” that their teams actually use. Azure AI Foundry will feature in selected sessions as an advanced path for pro‑code scenarios.
    Format

    • 10 sessions, every two weeks, starting 5 May
    • Live demos and walkthroughs each session
    • Practical patterns and templates you can reuse at work
    • Plenty of Q&A and discussion time

    Who should join

    • Power Platform / Copilot Studio makers
    • Developers exploring Copilot, agents, and Azure AI
    • IT pros and architects responsible for security and governance
    • Team leads and champions driving Copilot adoption

    Whether you’re just starting with Copilot Studio or already building plugins and prompts, this series will help you design, build, and operate agents that are robust enough for production – not just another cool demo.
