Microsoft Teams is coming to Office 365 the week of January 22, 2018.

Any University of Georgia department, unit, or recognized student organization can request a team by contacting the EITS Help Desk.

When a Team is created, an Office 365 group, SharePoint online site, and an Exchange Online group will be created. Teams can also be created from exisiting Office 365 groups, which will allow group members and content to be imported to Teams.

Features of Teams include a chat service that allows for quick, real-time conversations to take place and easy access to files in OneDrive. Teams also provides a meeting experience built on cloud-based infrastructure. 

For more information on Teams, please contact Lewis Noles at lewis.noles@uga.edu.
