Microsoft Designer and Copilot Create for Beginners is a hands-on course in using Microsoft's AI tools to generate images from a description, edit photos and design posts, banners and invitations from templates, covering copyright and terms of use. It suits beginners, staff who produce internal materials and small business owners, and you leave with your own set of promotional materials.
Everyday communication needs more and more images, from social posts, notices, invitations and document covers to banners on company systems, yet many people have no graphic design background or no time for complex design software. Microsoft has therefore built AI image generation and design into Microsoft Designer and into the Create area of the Microsoft Copilot app, which can generate images from a description, edit photos and lay out designs from templates in minutes, as long as you know how to brief the AI well and use it within the terms.
This course takes beginners through Microsoft Designer and Create, starting with choosing the right tool for the account they use. Learners write prompts for images in different styles, edit photos by removing or blurring backgrounds, Generative Erase and Upscale, design posts, banners, invitations, greeting cards and collages from templates, and build a brand kit so their work has a consistent identity. They then apply this to Word, PowerPoint, Teams, SharePoint and email, and learn about copyright, images of people and the terms for commercial use. The course closes with a workshop that produces a full set of promotional materials in every size. (2 days, 6 hours per day, 12 hours in total, Beginner level.)
Course Details
This is the 2026 edition of the Microsoft Designer for beginners course. It runs for 2 days, 6 hours per day (12 hours in total, 09:00-16:00), as lectures with a lab in every topic, at Beginner level. Because Microsoft is bringing its AI design features together with Copilot, the course now covers both Microsoft Designer and Create in the Microsoft Copilot app, adding
how to choose a tool by account type, AI photo editing, brand kits, use in Word, PowerPoint, Teams and email, and copyright and terms of use. Learners use their own Microsoft accounts, and AI features draw on a limited number of credits that depends on the account type. They take home the course handbook, a library of sample prompts and the materials they produce in the workshop.

Microsoft Designer is a graphic design tool that uses AI to generate images from a description, edit photos and design from templates, on the web and mobile app with a Microsoft account. Create is part of the Microsoft Copilot app and can produce images, posters, banners and other materials in a similar way, with support for work and school accounts. Microsoft is bringing more of its design features together with Copilot, so this course covers both tools and how to choose the right one for your account.
Say clearly what is in the image, where it is, the style, such as photorealistic or watercolour, and the lighting and mood, and choose an aspect ratio that suits the job. Use Enhance prompt to expand the description, then refine the prompt one detail at a time based on the result. Avoid asking AI to render long text inside the image; add text afterwards instead. The course provides a library of sample prompts by type of work.
Upload the photo to the image editor and choose to remove or blur the background; AI separates the main subject automatically, and you can then add a plain colour or a new image behind it. For unwanted objects, such as cables or passers-by, brush over them with Generative Erase and AI fills the area to blend in, then use Upscale to increase resolution before use. If the photo shows people, get their consent before publishing it.
It suits beginners with no graphic design background, administrative, HR and communications staff, small business owners and online sellers, teachers, lecturers and anyone interested. You only need to use a computer and web browser and have a working Microsoft account. If you have a work or school account, bring it too so you can try Create as it is used in organisations.
You will be able to choose Designer or Create to suit your account, write prompts for images in many styles, edit photos with AI, design posts, banners, invitations and cards from templates, build a brand kit and produce graphics for Word, PowerPoint, Teams, SharePoint and email, using AI images within the terms, and take home your own set of promotional materials. Participants who complete the training receive a Certificate of Completion with its own number, which can be verified online.
Bring a laptop with internet access, a personal Microsoft account and a work or school account if you have one. Microsoft Designer is free with a Microsoft account, but AI features draw on a limited number of credits. Create needs an eligible Microsoft 365 subscription on a personal account, while work and school accounts can use Create without a Copilot licence, although some features need a licence or admin setup. Commercial use of images must follow the terms of the account you use, which the instructor explains during the course.
