THANKS!

• Thanks to our friends at Kawartha Pine Ridge DSB for sharing this PowerPoint on Microsoft Lync.

• There have been a few modifications to reflect some differences in Grand Erie.

What is Lync?

1. It’s like Skype!

2. Instant messenger

3. Video call

4. Voice call

5. Share your desktop

Lync Etiquette

• Be aware that everything you do and say on a video call is visible / audible to ALL participants in the meeting

• If you are not speaking, mute yourself so others do not hear the background noise

• Everything you do and say is just as noticeable as if you were in the same room
