Microsoft Teams is a collaboration tool. It is a way to invite everyone you work with to chat, meet, call, and work together all in one place, no matter where you are.
Augusta University personnel and students can access Microsoft Teams both on and off campus. Guests and external participants can be invited to a scheduled meeting, but external accounts can't be added to an actual team or channel in Teams.
Microsoft Teams is not integrated with Augusta University’s Brightspace LMS. To seamlessly add video conferencing and meeting capability to your courses you will need to use AU Enterprise Zoom account.
Teams is not to be used for the transmission fo patient data or for any clinical needs.
