Using the Microsoft Teams Application

Learn how to use the application called Microsoft Teams with these simple steps

* Published on November 19, 2020

Teams is an application for holding online video meetings, similar to zoom and skype. We use Teams at Surrey Place because it is safer to keep your information private than Zoom and other applications. Learning to use Teams will help you to join meetings with your clinicians, or larger training sessions and workshops.

Let’s learn Teams™!
