Design & Build Autonomous AI agents & End-to-End AI Workflow Automation in Microsoft Copilot Studio

4.6
2,152 reviews

Created by: Prof. Ryan Ahmed, PhD, MBA

Last updated December 2025

Our take

Based on the ratings of 2,152 students, a sample of their written reviews and the syllabus, as the course stood in December 2025. No course pays to be reviewed.

Ryan Ahmed's bootcamp teaches Microsoft Copilot Studio from scratch. It runs 7.9 hours across 64 lectures in seven sections, and no coding is needed. You build a document-based RAG chatbot, a single agent with tools and triggers, a team of cooperating agents for a Nike marketing campaign, and a financial analyst agent that pulls data over REST APIs. The audience is business users, analysts and curious beginners. Basic Office familiarity helps, but the course says it is not required. It is a tool course, not an AI theory course.

Most reviewers like the teaching. They call Ahmed's explanations clear and well paced, with helpful examples, and beginners say the gradual, step-by-step approach is easy to follow. The complaints are consistent too. Several people found section 7 repetitive or out of place with the rest of the course. Some could not find the downloadable templates the instructor mentions, and one reviewer got different results from the videos and felt questions went unanswered. Two others wanted more depth: an AI engineer missed Dataverse connectors and backend integration, and another found it too entry level.

Of 2,152 ratings, 1,220 are five stars and 726 are four, and only 35 are one or two stars. The course was last updated in December 2025, yet one reviewer already calls it a bit dated, which is the risk with a product that changes this fast. At under eight hours it is a quick way in. Take it for a guided first build. Skip it if you already know the platform and need depth.

Best forOffice workers and business analysts who want to build working Copilot agents without writing code.
Skip it ifYou are a developer who wants Dataverse, indexing or backend API integration depth.

Pros

  • Builds six working agents, including a RAG bot and a Nike multi-agent marketing team
  • No code needed, and beginners say the pace and step-by-step explanations are easy to follow
  • Ahmed's teaching is described as clear, energetic and detail oriented
  • Short at 7.9 hours across 64 lectures, so it is easy to finish in a few sittings

Cons

  • Section 7 is called repetitive and out of flow by several reviewers
  • Some reviewers could not find the downloadable templates and files
  • Too basic for developers wanting Dataverse, indexing or API integration depth
This is a great course for someone who is a beginner and wants to start with the copilot without writing any code.

Labeled All Levels, but it really suits non-coders new to Copilot Studio, not experienced builders.

Instructor Details

Prof. Ryan Ahmed, PhD, MBA

I'm Dr. Ryan Ahmed, professor, engineer, and founder of Stemplicity, where we help people get past the hype and actually build things with AI, Agentic AI, Cloud, and Data Science.

Over the past 10 years, I've taught 1 million learners across 160 countries — 700,000+ enrolled in my Udemy courses, 260,000+ subscribers on the "Prof. Ryan Ahmed" YouTube channel, and 120,000+ on Coursera. I also run corporate AI training for teams at HSBC, RBC, Discover, and Barclays across the US, Canada, and the UK. I held leadership roles at GM, Samsung, and Stellantis in Canada and the U.S., working on electric and autonomous vehicle technologies.

I hold a MASc, PhD, and MBA from McMaster University. I’m also a licensed Professional Engineer and a Stanford-certified program manager with over 60+ published research papers in AI and battery systems.

But credentials are the least interesting part. Here's what I actually believe: "AI is the biggest opportunity of our lifetime", and most people are sitting it out because they think they need to code or have a PhD. You don't. If you're willing to show up and try, I'll help you get good at this.

By Arun Kumar on 9/3/2026

The course is designed well for beginner and gradually explains every small points for better understanding, I felt it good and informative for learning Copilot Studio and Ai Agents. Thank you for this amazing course.

By Mohan Murali Krishna Dangeti on 8/18/2026

Excellent demonstration of agent creation, instruction design, and agent-to-agent connectivity. The presentation was clear, engaging, and effectively showcased the key concepts and best practices for building and orchestrating connected agents.

By Stephen Clow on 7/28/2026

This course was a good match for me. I am working on building AI Agents for our organization now. I would've liked a little more information specific to support type agents.

By Bhavya Vishnu on 7/26/2026

Thank you for the course, I learnt some new concepts. However, i found section 7 repetitive, it did not fit into the flow of the course, for example the last video says see you in the next lecture! Questions were also not answered and I could not finish the API demo.

By Rakesh Vayeda on 6/20/2026

This has been very informative and well-structured. It covered all the relevant topics in detail and explained the concepts clearly, making it easy to understand and apply. Overall, it was a valuable learning experience.

By Paul Jeremy on 6/5/2026

Good clear and concise course. It's good also when things don't work and they are not covered up - because it's good learning. It covers 90% things. I would like to see more of the stuff around Publishing the agent and the "channels" section which enables M365, Teams and Sharepoint integration. Thank you!

By Juan Cruz Grattone on 4/21/2026

Excellent course! Thorough and perfectly suited for non-developers. It does a great job of grounding complex concepts such as tools and workflows. I would recommend continuous updates to stay up to speed with Copilot Studio. While the course feels a bit brief, it is remarkably clear and concise. Top marks!

By Scoda Valentin on 4/16/2026

I like it, it would also be fantastic to have a demo or some instructions regarding the following project: I want to create a calendar booking website for foreign languages lessons, on the respective website I should be able to upload some test demo lessons, then the students should be able to enter their details in a form first. Then the tutor should be able to send them an email stating that they can start a calendar booking process, where they would see the free\busy available time of the tutor when they can have their lessons. Once they have done the booking, that must be first accepted by the tutor and then a confirmation email should be sent to both the tutor and the student...I mean this scenario would be awesome...then of course I have also other scenarios like creating a supporting tool request with copilot studio integrated with Jira\ServiceNow and being done for different support requests scenarios in Exchange Online, OneDrive for Business, Microsoft Teams, SharePoint or Azure :)

By Sean D'Addamio on 3/18/2026

I started dabbling with Copilot Studio and built a simple RAG agent. This course greatly expanded my understanding of not only what some of the capabilities and use cases are, but more importantly how to connect all the moving parts to build advanced agents. With easy instruction and you following along, Ryan expertly guides you from novice to advanced in no time. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to learn Copilot Studio!

By Ajinkya Ashok Londhe on 3/8/2026

Overall, the course was quite good. It would have been excellent if we had some demo for multi-agent where we can store output from one agent into a variable and pass it to another agent in term of inter dependant agent and produce Final outputs. Different deployment channel strategy and limitation specially team or M365 Copilot.
