Microsoft Teams: Schedule a Webinar

Summary

Instructions on how to create a webinar in Microsoft Teams.

Body

Overview

In Microsoft Teams, you have access to creating a webinar that can host up to 1,000 attendees. You can add in presenter bios as well as branding for the registration page.

Tip: Make sure you are in the calendar view when you go to schedule the webinar. You will not see the option if you are trying to schedule a meeting from a Team or a chat.

Instructions

See this article from Microsoft for more information, tips, and screenshots on scheduling a webinar.

  1. In your calendar on Teams, select New Meeting and then select Webinar.
  2. Enter webinar details:
    • Make sure to include any co-organizers here. It is always a good idea to have multiple co-organizers for a webinar or important meeting.
    • Set a later time for attendees on the registration form to give yourself and presenters time to prepare together before the event begins.
  3. Select Save.
  4. Be sure to configure your registration requirements and ask any questions you need to know (such as if attendee requires a special accommodation). You can also add branding and theming to the webinar.
