Module 20: Adoption, ROI, Capstones, and Expert Certification
Lesson 20.4: How to Run a Copilot Prompt-a-thon or Training Session
Lesson Promise
Design an energizing training session that produces real workflow artifacts.
Real-World Scenario
A facilitator wants a live workshop where employees practice prompts, build workflows, and leave with usable templates.
Core Concept
A strong prompt-a-thon gives learners safe data, role scenarios, prompt patterns, review rules, and time to build.
The session should produce artifacts: prompts, workflow maps, checklists, and next-step commitments.
Training should reinforce privacy, source review, and human judgment throughout.
Step-By-Step Workflow
- Choose audience, scenarios, and safe sample materials.
- Prepare starter prompts and review checklists.
- Teach the prompt pattern briefly.
- Run guided practice in small groups.
- Have participants build one workflow artifact.
- Capture wins, risks, questions, and next actions.
