Build your enterprise's own Frontier Transformation Engineer

Frontier Firm 觉醒之路

AI is reshaping how enterprises work. The real gap isn't whether you've "switched on Copilot" — it's whether your team can take an Agent from idea to production on its own. This workshop turns the capabilities of a Microsoft Frontier Transformation Engineer into a repeatable delivery muscle inside your organization — the enterprise gains a team that can build its own Agents and dares to ship them to production, plus a methodology that stays in-house; individuals gain real, transferable skills, a portfolio piece they keep, and a natural on-ramp to Microsoft certification.

Why now

Stop "learning AI." Start delivering AI.

Microsoft describes a Frontier Firm as an organization where human ingenuity meets frontier intelligence. Becoming one takes more than a handful of certificates — it takes a team that can roll up its sleeves and make Agents trustworthy, governable, and production-ready. This workshop follows Microsoft's native capability tracks, stays grounded in real business scenarios, and sends everyone home with something they can actually use — not a test paper.

CAPABILITY TRACK · 01

Work IQ

Work Intelligence

Grow Agents inside real workflows — fluent in people, documents, and collaboration — and hand visible productivity back to every working day.

CAPABILITY TRACK · 02

Fabric IQ

Data Intelligence

Make every Agent answer backed by business data — traceable and trustworthy, not a polished guess.

CAPABILITY TRACK · 03

Foundry IQ

Platform / Knowledge Intelligence

Take Agents from "demo-ready" to "production-ready" — grounding, orchestration, governance, and scale, all in one pass.

Who it's for

One workshop, a seat for all three roles.

Business decision-makers / owners

You care about value, ROI, and rollout pace. Leave with a prioritized Agent-scenario blueprint for your own department.

Technical / engineering teams

You care about getting to production grade. Ground, orchestrate, and host Agents hands-on in Copilot Studio and Microsoft Foundry.

Partner delivery teams

You need methods and outcomes you can deliver to clients. Leave with a repeatable Frontier delivery playbook you can take straight to a customer site.

Before you enroll

Prerequisites, and an optional certification path.

The workshop itself has no exam and no graduation gate. But the skills you build here line up neatly with several core Microsoft certifications — so anyone who wants the credential can carry the momentum into the exam and make the payoff even more tangible.

PREREQUISITES · WHAT YOU NEED
  • Access to an M365 Copilot / Copilot Studio environment (or use a trial tenant we provide)
  • Bring one real business use case you genuinely want to solve
  • An open, AI-first mindset; for the technical modules, we recommend at least one team member per team with basic programming experience
OPTIONAL CERTIFICATION · TWO CORE EXAMS
GH-300 · GitHub Copilot

Validates AI-assisted development skills. Basic programming and Git experience recommended. Ideal for: developers and technical champions.

AI-102 / AI-103 · Develop AI apps & agents on Azure

Validates the ability to build AI apps and Agents on Azure. Familiarity with Azure fundamentals and at least one language (C# / Python) recommended. Ideal for: AI, cloud, and solution engineers.

For a business-architecture track, you can go further with AB-100 · Agentic AI Business Solutions Architect. All certifications are optional extensions, not a graduation gate.

Course structure

Five half-days, from hands-on practice to combined delivery.

First practice each of the three capabilities in turn, then run a card-based co-creation session to converge on your flagship scenario, and finally combine everything to build one end-to-end, production-ready Agent.

Module 1Half day

Put work in motion

Agents in the Flow of Work · Work IQ
Client outcome
A visible everyday productivity win: hand the repetitive email triage, note-taking, reporting, and search everyone does daily to an Agent, and give the team back time for real judgment and decisions. The business side feels "how much AI just saved me" on day one.
Hands-on output
In Agent Builder / Copilot Studio, build a working lightweight Agent around one of your own real workflows, then trial it live and run a round of iteration.
Capability
Work IQ · Work Intelligence
Module 2Half day

Make data speak

When Data Speaks · Fabric IQ
Client outcome
Every Agent answer is backed by business data — traceable and trustworthy, not a polished guess. That turns an Agent from a "chat toy" into an assistant you'd trust for operational decisions, cutting the business risk of wrong answers head-on.
Hands-on output
Connect an Agent to business data and semantic models in Microsoft Fabric, build a Data Agent that answers questions on real metrics, and verify that its answers are traceable.
Capability
Fabric IQ · Data Intelligence
Module 3Half day

Forge a trustworthy Agent

The Foundry Forge · Foundry IQ
Client outcome
Cross from "can demo" to "ready for production" — grounding, orchestration, security, and governance covered in full, so the enterprise knows exactly which gates an Agent must clear before launch, and decision-makers and IT align on one shared standard.
Hands-on output
On Microsoft Foundry, build grounding and multi-Agent orchestration samples, set up observability and governance with Agent 365, and produce a reusable "enterprise-readiness checklist."
Capability
Foundry IQ · Platform Intelligence
Module 4One afternoon

Scenario puzzle · Card co-creation

Compose the Flagship Scenario · Three capabilities converge
Client outcome
Use a card deck to assemble the real pain points "everyone in the department complains about" into a flagship scenario that's both high-value and highly feasible — turning topic selection from a gut call into a consensus decision you can see on a value × feasibility grid.
Hands-on output
A completed flagship-scenario card (role / pain point / data / value all filled in) = the charter for the final Capstone, with everyone signed up and ownership assigned.
Capability
Work + Fabric + Foundry · Converge
Module 5Half day · Capstone

Three streams as one · Capstone

The Frontier Build · End-to-end build
Client outcome
Combine the three capabilities into one end-to-end, production-ready Agent — the team's proof of capability, standing in for "earn a badge by passing an exam": the enterprise gets an outcome it can actually use, and individuals get a portfolio piece worth putting on a résumé.
Hands-on output
Develop pro-code with GitHub Copilot (coding assistant + Agent/extension SDK), orchestrate through the Agent Framework SDK, and deploy it hosted as a Foundry hosted agent; set side by side with the low-code route in Copilot Studio to prove business can pick it up and engineering can ship it.

Why choose us

Choose this program, and here's what your enterprise gains.

Buying a stack of generic AI courses and getting your team to ship a production-ready Agent around your own business are two very different things. This program is built for the latter.

From "using AI" to "building your own AI"

Bank the delivery capability inside your team instead of leaning on outsourcing long-term — every run makes the organization a little more self-sufficient.

Real use cases, real outcomes

Every module centers on your own business and produces a production-ready Agent, not a sample demo built for training.

Aligned with Microsoft's official path

By following the Frontier Stack and Microsoft's native definitions, what your team learns plugs straight into Microsoft certifications and ecosystem — no detours, no learning a "dialect."

Governance and enterprise-readiness built in

Observability, governance, and compliance with Agent 365 are on the table from day one, moving launch risk forward so it's solved "while you learn."

A visible capability leap

By the end, the organization holds a repeatable methodology and a team that can deliver — a capability gain you can demonstrate and measure.

Talent retention and morale

Individuals gain transferable skills, a portfolio piece, and a path to certification, and the organization uses that sense of growth to retain key talent.
