Enable Microsoft Teams for your school

  • Artikkeli

Microsoft Teams is a digital hub that brings conversations, content, and apps together in one place. Because it's built on M365, schools benefit from integration with their familiar Office apps and services. Your institution can use Microsoft Teams to create collaborative classrooms, connect in professional learning communities, and communicate with school staff all from a single experience in Microsoft 365 for Education.

To get started, IT administrators need to use the M365 Admin Center to enable Microsoft Teams for your school.

Note

If you have an EDU license at the M365 tenant level you must enable Teams from the Microsoft 365 admin center. To do this, go to the Microsoft 365 admin center Settings> Settings > Microsoft Teams. If you don’t see Microsoft Teams in the Services list, turn off Try the new admin center to find Settings> Services and add-ins> Microsoft Teams. This change may take up to 24 hours for all users to have access to Teams.
