Collaboration Tools: Microsoft Teams - Part 1 - Getting Started (Live Online using MS Teams) BeginnersNew
Need to get up to speed with Teams? Then join us in this friendly, slow-paced, introductory session to learn how to get up and running. This is Part 1 of 4 courses that provide you the opportunity to get a hands on and in-depth insight into Teams. If you prefer a quick overview of Teams then consider joining the Fast Track course instead. Please note that the course is taught using Microsoft Teams and you must have Teams installed on your computer to participate.
You will:
- Understand Teams, Channels and an overview of what is possible in the application
- Chat in a group or one-to-one
- Collaborate with colleagues. In Teams you can access, share, and edit Word docs, PowerPoint, and Excel files in real time
If you book:

- Install the Microsoft Teams app. (It is possible to join using Edge or Chrome but there is less functionality when using a browser).
- Important: The instructor cannot troubleshoot access to Microsoft Teams on the day of the course. If you are in an institution that is managing their own Teams tenancy (CAMENT, JBS, medschl and some of the colleges) then you may not have access to the files or calendar used in the course. Please contact the instructor in advance to discuss this.
- If you are using Hermes for your email you will not be able to access the Teams calendar used in the course.
- It's advisable to make a test call in advance of the session.
- The course will start promptly at the time shown but will be open up to 30 minutes beforehand should you wish to check your audio and visual setup or meet your instructor.
