Each exercise is self-contained: what you'll do, time, setup, a copy-paste prompt, a sample, follow-up prompts, a verification checklist, and a reflection. Work in Copilot Chat and the M365 apps with the sample files (or your own non-sensitive content). The live labs are also hosted at github.com/opsgility/CMD-CCIIO.
Copilot drafts; you decide. Verify before you trust — check names, dates, dollar figures, and owners against the source. Never paste sensitive or non-public CMS information — use the fictional sample files or your own non-sensitive content only. Iterate: your first prompt is a starting point, not the finish line. All sample data in this repository is fictional and for training only.
