This session gives a good well rounded overview of how to create and hold one–on–one or group meetings in private Chats or Team Channels that include video, audio, chat messages, screen sharing, video backgrounds, meeting notes and recording, whiteboards and more in Microsoft Teams.

This session is part of the Microsoft Teams 100 series, which includes a comprehensive 1-day Microsoft Teams – 100: Essentials training session and multiple 2-hour feature-specific sessions to accommodate specific needs and time constraints. For a thorough Teams understanding, consider combining this session with other 2-hour sessions in the series or opting for the Microsoft Teams – 100: Essentials training, complemented by any 2-hour session for more in-depth knowledge on specific topics as required.
