About Microsoft Teams training

CTO delivers customised Microsoft Teams training across Australia, covering meetings, channels, chat, file collaboration, notifications and best-practice use of Teams as the central hub for team communication. Available at Introduction and Advanced levels, all sessions are tailored to your team’s actual workflows and usage patterns. Onsite anywhere in Australia or live online.

Microsoft TeamsMicrosoft Teams training – customised for your team

Microsoft Teams is the most used and most undertrained tool in the Microsoft 365 suite. Most people know how to join a meeting. Far fewer know how to use channels effectively, share and co-author files without version control problems, manage notifications without being overwhelmed or run meetings that people actually want to attend.

CTO’s Teams training is built around how your team actually uses Teams not a generic product walkthrough. Introduction sessions build the foundation for new or inconsistent Teams users. Advanced sessions focus on efficiency, best-practice channel structure, meeting facilitation and integrations with the rest of the Microsoft 365 environment.

Who should attend

  • Teams new to Microsoft Teams or switching from another communication platform
  • Organisations where Teams use is inconsistent and people have developed their own habits
  • Managers who want to run more effective meetings and use channels properly
  • Advanced users wanting to optimise Teams, set up channels properly and work with integrations

The Microsoft Teams training pathway

  • What this course covers

    The course is structured around the two core uses of Teams: communication and collaboration.

    Communication and meetings

    • Teams interface and navigation: teams, channels, chat and the activity feed
    • Setting up and managing channels for different teams and projects
    • Running effective meetings: scheduling, joining, recording and following up
    • Using chat for quick communication without cluttering channels or email
    • Managing notifications and status so Teams supports focus rather than creating interruptions

    Collaboration and files

    • Sharing, co-authoring and managing files within Teams channels
    • Understanding the relationship between Teams, SharePoint and OneDrive for file storage
    • Using tabs and apps within Teams channels to centralise work
    • Managing guest access and external collaboration settings
    • Teams best practices for organisations: channel structure, naming conventions and governance

  • How CTO delivers this training

    Before the session

    CTO works with the organising contact to understand how your team currently uses Teams, the specific challenges or inconsistencies you want to address and the workflows most relevant to your work. The session is shaped around these specifics.

    During the session

    Participants work within a live Teams environment throughout the session. Exercises are designed around your team’s real meeting patterns and collaboration needs rather than generic demos.

    After the session

    Participants receive a Teams best-practice guide covering channel structure, meeting standards and file management. Further training on SharePoint and OneDrive is available to build a complete Microsoft 365 file management capability.
