+Azure AI Foundry projects help you organize your work when exploring new ideas or developing prototypes for specific use cases. A Foundry project is created on an Azure AI Foundry resource. This type of project offers an easy setup and provides access to agents and Azure AI models.
+
+If you already have an Azure AI Language or multi-service resource—whether used on its own or through Language Studio—you can continue to use those existing Language resources within the Azure AI Foundry portal. For more information, see [How to use Azure AI services in the Azure AI Foundry portal](../../../../ai-services/connect-services-ai-foundry-portal.md).

 After you [build a schema](build-schema.md) for your fine-tuning task, you add training utterances to your project. The utterances should be similar to what your users use when they interact with the project. When you add an utterance, you have to assign which intent it belongs to. After the utterance is added, label the words within your utterance that you want to extract as entities.
 
-Data labeling is a crucial step in the conversational language understanding (CLU) trained development lifecycle. This data is used in the next step when you train your model so that your model can learn from the labeled data.

To learn more about importing labeled data, see [Create a CLU fine-tuning task](create-project.md#import-a-project). Labeled data informs the model about how to interpret text and is used for training and evaluation.
