Request a Team for your Department
All Geneseo faculty, staff, and students are eligible to request a new team for your department or group. Complete this form. Here are some suggestions as you begin to use your team:
-
If your group is private, invite people to your team. You can also invite non-Geneseo email addresses (they will get an email invitation). If you anticipate a large membership, you can share a join code via email to encourage people to join your team.
-
Identify additional owners of the team to share administrative duties. Owners will also receive notices about the team, such as expiration and deletion warnings should the team become inactive.
-
Create some channels. We recommend starting with a few, such as General, Water-Cooler, Functional Groups, project teams.
-
Set up your notifications. Microsoft has a good guide on all the notifications settings. It's also a good idea to talk with your team about what the expectations are around teams notifications.
