Tech Tip - Creating a Microsoft Team

Ever need to create a space where you can share files, notes and conversation with a group of individuals across the College? A Microsoft Team might be the answer. 

Once logged into Microsoft Teams: 

  • Click on Join or Create a Team (lower left). 
  • Hover on Create a Team and click Create Team. 
  • Pick Team Type – Staff is recommended.  
  • Type in a descriptive name and description. 
  • Select Private, then click Next. 
  • To add members, start typing the name of a person in your group, select the match and hit enter. Then click on Add – they will be added as a ‘member.’ 
  • Be sure to make at least one other person ‘owner.’ 
  • Continue adding people until the group is complete. 

 Your new team now provides a space where you can share files, collaboratively edit and take part in threaded conversation boards on your topic. 

Need help getting started with Microsoft Teams? Call the Employee Technology Support Center at (585) 292-8324, option 3, Monday through Friday, 8:45am to 4:45pm.
