Requesting a new Team
A ‘Team’ refers to a Microsoft Team and can be requested by staff and PGRs. A 'Team' is the name for an official collaborative group in Microsoft Teams set up for working groups, departments or projects. Each Team has their own SharePoint storage and tools to enable collaboration, communication and coordination.
Within the Team you will have channels for sub-teams, for services the Team is responsible for, or for topics. By default these channels aren’t private so all members of your Team will be able to see the conversation and content of each channel. We also offer the ability to add privacy via a feature called Private Channels.
There's lots of functionality available to you within the Teams platform before you might need a specific Team creating. One-to-one chats, group chats and recurring meetings all work without needing a specific Team.
You will need to complete a form to request a new Team. Teams created outside of this process will be deleted by IT Services.
