Teams Meetings

Microsoft Teams is a collaborative communication and teamwork platform developed by Microsoft. It is designed to facilitate remote collaboration and communication among team members in real-time for 1,000 attendees and broadcasts (view only). The platform provides users with a range of tools for chatting, audio and video conferencing, file sharing, and project management.

Teams Meetings can be accessed via a desktop application, the web (log into Office.herts.ac.uk using Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge) or via a mobile app, however, we recommend using the desktop application for the best experience.
