Microsoft Teams - Advice for virtual Meetings

Estimated Reading Time: 1 Minutes

This is general guidance for virtual meetings including MDT meetings. If you wish to deviate from this, please seek advice from your Organisation’s IG Team

1) Schedule:

  • Log in to Teams
  • Schedule a virtual meeting from your calendar and invite the required attendees

 2) Share and discuss:

  • If you need to record the meeting for transcript purposes, ask participants if they agree to record the meeting and click record
  • Discuss agenda points remotely with attendees
  • Share and collaborate on data in real-time with internal or external colleagues
  • Clearly state that no copies of the recording should be downloaded

3) Record and revisit:

  • If the meeting was recorded, store the recording for transcribing in a secure area
  • Write up and distribute meeting minutes as required

4) Delete:

  • Delete the recording in line with record retention policy so that PID and the recording is not stored in Teams or elsewhere beyond
    the expected use (for transcript purposes only)
  • Ensure the recording is deleted. Be aware that the meeting organiser or whoever initiated the recording is the only person able to
    delete the recording
