The best custom application may be one your users never have to go looking for.

Join Ayers at CollabDays Bletchley Park for “Build Your Own Copilot with Microsoft 365 Agents Toolkit”.

Extending Microsoft 365 Copilot allows developers to place custom applications directly into the tools where people already work. Traditionally, however, getting everything configured and running has involved a considerable amount of setup.

Bill will demonstrate how Microsoft 365 Agents Toolkit can handle much of that configuration work, allowing developers to focus on building useful solutions and writing code.

You’ll see how to get started with:
• Copilot declarative agents
• Custom engine agents
• Microsoft 365 Agents Toolkit
• Integrating custom applications into users’ everyday work
• Moving from initial setup to a working agent more quickly

Bill will be presenting in the First Generation Gallery at The National Museum of Computing. The gallery houses pioneering machines including the Harwell Dekatron—or WITCH—the world’s oldest original working digital computer, alongside the reconstruction of EDSAC. From the earliest generations of programmable machines to building the latest Copilot agents, it is difficult to imagine a more appropriate setting.

Your organisation may not have approved every AI tool its people use. That doesn’t mean they aren’t already using them.
Join Chapple at CollabDays Bletchley Park for “You Can’t Stop AI: Governing Copilot and Shadow AI with Purview and Defender”.

As Microsoft 365 Copilot and third-party generative AI tools become part of everyday work, sensitive information can leave organisational control the moment it is entered into an unapproved prompt. Without visibility, organisations cannot properly understand or manage that risk.

Nikki, a dual Microsoft MVP in Microsoft 365 and Security, will explain how Microsoft Purview and Microsoft Defender can help you:

• Discover how AI tools are being used
• Assess applications and associated data risks
• Enforce appropriate access controls
• Apply policies that protect sensitive information
• Combine application-level controls with data-level protection
• Govern AI without preventing legitimate productivity

Rather than attempting to block AI altogether, this session provides a practical approach to enabling it safely, with the visibility, accountability and controls needed for secure adoption.

Nikki will be presenting in the BBC Classroom at The National Museum of Computing. Its 18 working BBC Micros celebrate the Computer Literacy Project that introduced a generation of British schoolchildren to computing through structured education—a fitting setting for a conversation about adopting transformative technology responsibly.

Accessibility works best when it is part of the first conversation—not something added at the end.

Join May at CollabDays Bletchley Park for “Inclusive by design: Making 365 work for everyone”.

Microsoft 365 includes powerful accessibility features that can support people with visual, hearing, mobility and cognitive impairments, as well as improving usability for everyone. Yet many of these capabilities remain overlooked or underused.
Jim will explore how organisations can:

• Create more inclusive Microsoft Teams meetings
• Design accessible SharePoint sites and content
• Make better use of Microsoft 365’s built-in accessibility tools
• Support different needs and working styles
• Build a culture in which inclusion is everyone’s responsibility

Whether you are an end user, IT professional or business leader, this session will provide practical ways to reduce barriers and create digital workplaces where more people can participate and perform at their best.

Jim will be presenting in the Learning Room at The National Museum of Computing, inside historic Block H. Six Colossus machines once operated in this building, helping to establish the foundations of modern electronic computing.

Switching on Microsoft Copilot is not the finish line. It is where the administrative work begins.

Join Patel MVP MCT at CollabDays Bletchley Park for “From Deployment to Governance: Owning the Copilot Admin Experience”.

Chirag will guide Microsoft 365 administrators through the complete administrative lifecycle of Copilot and AI agents—from preparing the tenant and enabling features to maintaining governance, monitoring activity and controlling user access.
The session will explore:

• Tenant readiness and feature enablement
• Copilot administration settings
• Copilot Studio agent controls
• Data protection configurations
• Monitoring and ongoing governance
• Managing access without preventing innovation

You’ll leave with a repeatable framework for managing AI tools responsibly, protecting organisational data and ensuring Copilot continues to deliver value without creating new headaches for IT.

Chirag will be presenting in the BBC Classroom at The National Museum of Computing. The room contains 18 working BBC Micro computers—the machines that introduced a generation of British schoolchildren to programming through the BBC Computer Literacy Project of the 1980s.

Does Microsoft Forms in SharePoint purr along nicely—or occasionally show its claws?

Join Piwowar-Stróż at CollabDays Bletchley Park for “MS Forms in SharePoint – big scary administration monster or a cute kitty?”

For users, Microsoft Forms can be wonderfully straightforward: create a form, embed it on a SharePoint page, collect responses and view the results with very little configuration.

For administrators, however, questions soon emerge:
• Is the form owned by an individual or a group?
• What happens when its owner leaves?
• Where is the data stored?
• How should retention and data residency be managed?
• How can forms be discovered and governed across Microsoft 365?

Magdalena will explore both sides, helping you retain the simplicity users enjoy while preventing ownership, lifecycle and governance issues from becoming an administrative monster.

Fittingly, the session takes place in the Colossus Gallery at The National Museum of Computing. This is the original room in historic Block H where Colossus No. 9 stood during the Second World War—and it is now home to the working Colossus rebuild.

A Microsoft 365 migration shouldn’t mean prolonged downtime, disrupted users and an overwhelmed support desk.

Join Murray, Product Owner at PowerSyncPro, at CollabDays Bletchley Park for “Modernising Microsoft 365 and Entra ID migrations without downtime”.

Conrad will take a practical look at simplifying complex directory synchronisation and Windows device migrations while preserving user profiles and creating a smoother experience after migration.

The session will cover:
• Active Directory and Entra ID migrations
• Microsoft 365 tenant-to-tenant scenarios
• Google and cloud-native migrations
• Reducing downtime and support demand
• Preserving users’ profiles, settings and working environments

You’ll also see a migration performed in real time and leave with practical next steps for mergers, tenant migrations, Entra Join projects and moves away from legacy Active Directory.

Conrad will be presenting in the Pop-Up Gallery at The National Museum of Computing. The museum occupies historic Block H—the last surviving building to have housed the wartime Colossus machines that helped decipher high-level German communications during the Second World War.

How many useful Copilot prompts are hiding in personal notes, old emails and forgotten documents across your organisation?

Fierens and Dalby are joining us at CollabDays Bletchley Park to explain why every organisation needs a Prompt Catalogue.

They’ll show how a shared, structured catalogue can help teams:
• Stop rewriting the same prompts
• Produce more consistent results
• Share successful approaches across the business
• Build confidence in using Microsoft Copilot
• Move from individual experimentation to an organisational capability

The session concludes with a live SharePoint demonstration showing how to create a lightweight Prompt Catalogue that you can begin using immediately—without introducing new tools or unnecessary complexity.

Anouck and Steve will be presenting in the Meeting Room at The National Museum of Computing. The room is inside historic Block H, the last surviving building to have housed the wartime Colossus machines. Six Colossus computers once operated here, helping to decipher high-level German communications during the Second World War.
