How to Schedule a Meeting using Microsoft Teams

Many of us have moved to working completely remotely if our occoupations allow in the past few weeks. As a result, many of our meetings have moved to be virtual.

With Microsoft Teams, scheduling virtual meetings is simple, effective and fast. Microsoft Teams is compatible with Microsoft Office 365 and Dynamics 365.

Since March 2020, Microsoft Dynamics has offered six months of Microsoft Teams free to accommodate those working from home, and align with The World Health Organization’s guidance and encouragement to stay at home as much as possible.

To schedule virtual meetings with Microsoft Teams, follow these five steps.

1. Open Microsoft Teams

2. Click on “Calendar” on the left navigation bar

3. Click “New Meeting” in the upper-right hand corner of your top menu bar

4. Fill in the Details of your “New Meeting”

• Craft a Meeting Title
• Add Required Attendees’ Email Addresses
• Set the Date and Time
• Set whether or not this Meeting will Repeat
• Add a Channel
• Add a Location if there is one – or Write “Remote”
• Write a Meeting Description

5. Click “Save” in the upper-right hand corner of your top menu bar

Microsoft Teams is available for desktop and mobile use. Starting this month, users can gain 6 months of free access to Microsoft Teams.
