The portfolio is scattered
Pilots, licenses, agents, and ideas are moving without one value, risk, adoption, and ownership frame.
Transformation needs an accountable leader
AI investment needs direction, not sponsorship theater.
AB-731 prepares business decision-makers to recognize AI opportunities, choose the right Microsoft capability, plan adoption, address responsible AI, and connect investment to operating outcomes. The day treats leadership as an active responsibility rather than a ceremonial approval step.
Technology leads the conversation
Leaders need a business view of Copilot, Copilot Studio, Foundry, models, grounding, cost, and build-versus-buy decisions.
Adoption lacks an owner
Champions, governance, measurement, change, and continuing operations have not been assembled into one plan.
Complete curriculum
Prepare against the current skills measured.
Temen uses the current Microsoft objective domains as the preparation boundary, then adds applied scenarios, visible artifacts, and a study plan.
Business value of generative AI
Recognize when generative AI can create value and when reliability, data, cost, security, or process conditions make another approach better.
- Generative AI, other AI patterns, models, grounding, RAG, and machine learning
- Business requirements, data quality, scalability, automation, reliability, bias, and security
- Token and consumption cost drivers, benefit hypotheses, and ROI considerations
APPLIED PRACTICE
Evaluate a portfolio of staged opportunities and reject ideas that lack a credible value, data, control, or ownership path.
Microsoft AI capabilities and choices
Match business needs to Copilot, agents, Microsoft 365 experiences, Copilot Studio, Graph, Foundry, and model choices.
- Microsoft 365 Copilot, Copilot Chat, Researcher, Analyst, and app experiences
- Copilot Studio, Microsoft Graph, extensibility, and build-versus-buy decisions
- Microsoft Foundry, Foundry Tools, Azure AI Search, models, scalability, and security
APPLIED PRACTICE
Select an appropriate Microsoft path for four business situations and explain why more custom engineering is or is not justified.
Implementation and adoption strategy
Turn opportunity and technology choices into responsible adoption, governance, funding, and operating ownership.
- Responsible AI principles, governance principles, and AI council responsibility
- Adoption teams, champions, barriers, communication, skills, and measurement
- Data, security, privacy, licensing, pay-as-you-go, subscriptions, and cost ownership
APPLIED PRACTICE
Build the first 90-day adoption sequence with owners, checkpoints, measures, and decisions that can stop or change the plan.
Reviewed against Microsoft AB-731 skills measured as of July 22, 2026. Microsoft may update objectives, products, and policies. Temen checks the source again before delivery.

Interactive program preview
Check your preparation baseline.
Use four plain-language indicators to see where the course should spend more time. This is not a Microsoft practice assessment.
Delivery experience
See what happens before, during, and after.
The exact schedule is confirmed around the private cohort. The quality spine remains consistent: intake, current source review, applied learning, safe practice, artifacts, follow-up, and an accountable next action.
- 01OPEN
Leadership baseline
Identify the learner's current portfolio, decision rights, AI fluency, and transformation responsibilities.
- 02AM
Value and capability choices
Work through opportunity, models, data, cost, security, Copilot, agents, Foundry, and build-versus-buy decisions.
- 03PM
Responsible adoption
Apply governance, council, champion, investment, measurement, and operating-owner decisions to a staged transformation.
- 04CLOSE
Leadership study plan
Translate observed gaps into a focused preparation sequence and an immediate leadership action.
Applied scenarios
Practice the judgment behind the capability.
Scenarios use fictional, sanitized, or explicitly approved information. The learner sees the decision, the control, the human checkpoint, and the artifact that should remain after the conversation.
Approve, change, or stop an AI portfolio
Compare value, feasibility, data, risk, cost, adoption, and operating ownership across competing investments.
Move from pilot to operating capability
Define sponsor, process owner, technology owner, governance, support, measurement, and the next release boundary.
Choose the right Microsoft path
Distinguish Copilot, an agent, Copilot Studio, Foundry, and non-AI process change based on the business condition.
What the buyer receives
The session produces more than attendance.
Temen leaves the learner and buyer with useful artifacts, visible next actions, and a clear boundary between training, implementation, support, and further project work.
