Microsoft Teams

Chat, Conference, Collaborate, and So Much More

Microsoft Teams is a powerful tool for organizing people and tasks. In its most basic form, it can be used to communicate via chat or video with other people. In addition to its functions as a chat and conferencing tools, Teams has a number of apps that integrate with it, to help with a variety of purposes such as software to help with brainstorming, mind mapping, and project management. These apps can give you the ability to chart ideas, create goals, and assign tasks to team members. They can also be used for file sharing and so much more.

As part of DoIT’s commitment to training, we’ve assembled a number of learning resources to help you learn and master this powerful collaboration tool. New employees and people who are in a rush can start with the buttons to the right, but if you really want to master Teams, check out the LinkedIn Learning links below.
