Using the Club Microsoft Teams

All clubs have had a Microsoft Teams created for them to exist together virtually! As students join clubs, they will be added to the Club’s Team. Teams allows clubs to upload and share files so that everyone is up-to-date on club happenings. We suggest turning on notifications for every club that you are involved with, so that you get updates whenever anyone posts to the group. Club Leaders can also create channels if groups are working on multiple projects or if you have subgroups that want to maintain other conversations. Teams also works with other Microsoft applications like Forms and others, so you can continue to personalize your group and make it work for you. Watch this Intro to Microsoft Teams and find more training videos and help Microsoft Teams help.

Meetings

Club Leaders can also schedule their meetings directly through Teams, all members will be able to join the meetings, and meetings can be added to your Outlook calendar, making it even easier to keep track of your schedule. We will continue to post your meeting times on the Club website so that interested students will know the club’s meeting schedule.

Accessing Teams

Once you have been added to a Team, you can access it anytime through your microsoft account.

  • Download Teams for your desktop, iOS, or Android.
  • Access it online. Go to your OneLogin Page, search for Teams, and use the tile to access all of your Teams! Be sure to turn on notifications for each group.
