Steps to creating a team on Microsoft Teams

The first thing that you need to do is to open up the Microsoft Teams platform and log into your account. You will need to log in if you are not logged in automatically to continue with the steps.

• Once you have opened the Microsoft Teams platform, find and click on the Teams option on the left sidebar of the app.
• You will get a small notification bar with a few different options. You must click on the white Join or create a team option. By clicking on it, you will be expanding a few more options. If you do not see this Create a new team option, your profile may not have some of the permissions it is supposed to have. However, if you do see the Create a team option now, click on it.
• When that new menu opens up, you should be able to pick the team type. Suppose you are creating your Team for school, select Class. However, if you are making a team of professors, click on the Staff option. Select whichever you prefer.
• You will be taken to a new screen where you need to describe and name your team. In the Name box, type the name of the team. Under the Name box, the Description box should be located. Type a short description there; write something little about your team, and give basic information. The next item on that screen is the Privacy settings. You are able to put your Team on private so that only you (a team owner) can add new members to it. Once you complete these basic settings, click on the Next button.
• You will be taken to your Team, which needs new members. Follow the instructions on your screen so that you can add new members immediately.
