Webinar - Modern Lawyer: AI & Microsoft Copilot for Lawyers (CPD 455)

Qualifies for 1.0 CPD Hour, all of which qualifies for Ethics.

A practical, lawyer friendly introduction to Microsoft Copilot

Artificial Intelligence is no longer theoretical in the legal profession — it is embedded directly into Microsoft 365 tools lawyers already use every day. This 60-minute webinar introduces legal professionals to Microsoft 365 Copilot, explaining what it is, how it works, and how to use it responsibly within real legal workflows.

Designed for busy lawyers, this session focuses only on the essentials: AI fundamentals, ethical and compliance considerations, and practical demonstrations of Copilot inside Word, Outlook, and across Microsoft 365 — without hype, jargon, or technical overload.
