    This introductory training session provided Rutgers faculty and staff with a practical foundation in generative AI and Microsoft Copilot. Participants learned how large language models generate responses, why AI systems can sometimes produce inaccurate information, and how to use AI responsibly and effectively in their daily work.

Videos and materials from training sessions given on 9/29/2026 and 10/1/2026.

The session explored enterprise data protection within the Rutgers Microsoft 365 environment, appropriate handling of university data, and the differences between institutionally protected AI services and consumer AI tools. Attendees also received hands-on demonstrations of Copilot in Microsoft 365 applications, including Word, Outlook, Teams, Excel, and PowerPoint, and were introduced to a structured prompting framework designed to improve the quality, accuracy, and usefulness of AI-generated results for common academic and administrative tasks.
