Q1. Partners will need to have any of the Modern work or Biz apps specializations achieved. Designations won't suffice.
Q2. We engage with partner to validate their Copilot offer with the following:
-
- Completion of required readiness training thru ESI bootcamps available for Jumpstart community tier partners.
- Internal deployment and adoption of Microsoft 365 Copilot - at least 20 seats deployment with a minimum of of 60% MAU for the Copilot Practice folks.

Q3. If the partner has the required specializations, they may apply to join the community tier of Jumpstart at aka.ms/copilotaccelerateapply to go through the readiness and practice validation
