Teams at VIA
At VIA we have to different ways of using Microsoft Teams: Teams meetings and Teams sites.
Teams sites is a collaboration platform where you can e.g. share documents, write with each other and have online meetings with the ones participating in the Teams site.
Teams meetings are virtual online meetings - just like in Zoom. You can find user manuals to Teams meetings by typing Teams in the search field.
