Use Copilot in Word to build documentation about your data project

Learn how to streamline documentation and research with Microsoft Word and Copilot.
Every data project needs context, whether for yourself, your team, or final presentations. In this Data Survival Skills session, Robin shows how to use Copilot in Word to look up Rural Urban Continuum (RUC) codes, generate explanations, and even turn results into tables. From there, you’ll see how to bring those tables into Excel and integrate them with your datasets for deeper analysis. This approach not only saves time but also makes documentation clearer, more accurate, and ready to support data-driven decisions. By blending AI-powered research with careful verification, you’ll build stronger context and credibility into every project.
