Microsoft is offering a free, beginner-friendly virtual training series for the GitHub Copilot app, with sessions listed in English, Spanish, Korean, Portuguese, Chinese, and Japanese.
Microsoft has announced a free virtual training series for developers who want to learn the GitHub Copilot app.
Microsoft for Developers says the event, titled “Let’s Learn GitHub Copilot App,” is a free, instructor-led virtual training program with no prior experience required. The company describes the series as beginner-friendly and available in multiple languages, including English, Spanish, Korean, Portuguese, Chinese, and Japanese.
The event is hosted through Microsoft Reactor, Microsoft’s developer community and learning program. The Microsoft Reactor series page lists six livestream sessions and describes the training as a way for participants to learn how to use the GitHub Copilot app for development workflows such as exploring issues, building features, and reviewing changes in parallel.
A Microsoft Reactor New York listing on Meetup also corroborates an online session scheduled for July 16, 2026. The Meetup description characterizes the session as beginner-friendly training for agent-driven development with the Copilot app.
According to Microsoft Reactor, the training is centered on practical use of the GitHub Copilot app rather than advanced setup. The series description says participants will learn how AI agents can help explore issues, build features, and review changes in parallel.
Microsoft for Developers says the sessions are instructor-led and require no prior experience. That framing suggests the series is aimed at developers who are curious about Copilot-based workflows but have not yet adopted the app or agent-driven development practices.
The multilingual schedule is notable because Microsoft is making the same introductory material available across several language communities. Microsoft’s event materials list English, Spanish, Korean, Portuguese, Chinese, and Japanese sessions, which may make the training accessible to developers beyond a single regional audience.
The training follows GitHub’s July 7, 2026 changelog announcement that the GitHub Copilot app is available to all Copilot plans. In that announcement, GitHub said the app supports agent-driven development from the desktop on macOS, Windows, and Linux.
That broader availability gives Microsoft a timely reason to run introductory sessions. With the app now available across Copilot plans, Microsoft’s training appears designed to help more users understand where the app fits into day-to-day development work.
GitHub’s changelog describes the app as a desktop experience for Copilot, while Microsoft Reactor’s event page focuses on applied development tasks. Taken together, the sources indicate that Microsoft is positioning the training as a hands-on on-ramp for developers who want to try Copilot-assisted workflows without needing previous experience.
Microsoft for Developers directs interested participants to register for the “Let’s Learn GitHub Copilot App” virtual event. Microsoft Reactor’s series page lists the sessions as livestreams, and the Meetup listing for Microsoft Reactor New York identifies at least one online session on July 16, 2026.
Developers considering the event should check Microsoft Reactor’s official series page for the latest session times, language availability, and registration details.
