The following documentation was used as training material for the Microsoft Training on December 1, 2023. This training material aims to offer an introduction to the Microsoft Teams and OneDrive integrations that will be the new resources for instructional meetings, following the end of Blackboard Collaborate as well as Zoom. Some integrations between Microsoft and Blackboard will exclusively function in the Ultra environment. Faculty members should be migrated to Ultra before the complete phase-out of Blackboard Collaborate coming Summer 2024.
