Microsoft 365 Transition
Information about the upcoming transition to Microsoft 365 can be found at technologyinitiatives.uncg.edu and contains an FAQ page as well as a way to submit questions about the transition. As CVPA staff, faculty, and admin have questions about these new initiatives, I would encourage you to visit technologyinitiatives.uncg.edu often for updates and submit your questions using the tool on that site.
Faculty and staff training will become available as the transition begins during the Spring 2023 semester. The following resources may be helpful as we begin the transition and while UNCG-specific documentation is still being developed:
- Documentation: Teams Help and Learning
- Training: Microsoft Video Training
- Accessibility: Configure Microsoft Teams meetings and calls for inclusion
- Request Form: Create a Team
- Microsoft 365 Learning and Support
- Microsoft Learn
- Microsoft 365 YouTube Channel
