  <title><![CDATA[Copilot Studio Foundations (FORGE AI Pre-Summit Education Session)]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>The FORGE AI Summit, Nov. 16-18, will offer three days of learning and exploration designed to build understanding, showcase what’s possible, and create opportunities to put new AI ideas into action. From Oct. 26 through Nov. 13, the Georgia Tech community can also participate in pre-summit education sessions across three AI learning tracks: Data Literacy, AI Literacy, and AI Developer/Challenge Bootcamp.</p><p>This pre-summit session introduces the core fundamentals of building custom agents. Microsoft will walk attendees through the Copilot Studio interface and the key components involved in agent creation (such as defining the agent’s purpose, adding topics and initial instructions, and understanding how an agent processes user input). By the end, attendees be equipped to start creating simple agents and ready to add more capabilities in subsequent sessions.</p><p>Registration Link: <a href="https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/a544e032-fda1-4399-bab4-71e615561865@482198bb-ae7b-4b25-8b7a-6d7f32faa083?source=copyLinkOneEventsShareDialog">https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/a544e032-fda1-4399-bab4-71e615561865@482198bb-ae7b-4b25-8b7a-6d7f32faa083?source=copyLinkOneEventsShareDialog</a></p><p>Microsoft Teams meeting:<strong>&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://teams.microsoft.com/meet/2967363283896111?p=9zyyOpf8VBscN2acHU">https://teams.microsoft.com/meet/2967363283896111?p=9zyyOpf8VBscN2acHU</a><br>Meeting ID: 296 736 328 389 611 1<br>Passcode: c7ff9eX6</p><p>Learn more about the FORGE AI Summit at <a href="https://b.gatech.edu/FORGESummit">b.gatech.edu/FORGESummit</a>.&nbsp;</p>]]></body>
