Canvas course sites and project sites can be synced with Microsoft Teams.

A few notes of importance:

Canvas courses and connected Teams are managed by Banner - our SIS/enrollment system. Faculty and students should be added and removed automatically. Canvas course sites are created automatically for faculty.
Canvas Project sites can sync with a team, but rosters are manually added/removed. To request a project site, email CanvasHelp@providence.edu
VERY IMPORTANT: Your Team for your class will be automatically created for you. Already created Teams CANNOT be integrated with Canvas.

1.) Navigate to Settings for your appropriate site

2.) In Settings, select the Integrations tab

3.) Turn on Microsoft Sync

4.) Now that your Providence College Microsoft accounts are synced with Canvas, select Navigation

5.) Enable Microsoft Teams Meetings (video conferencing) and/or Teams Classes (chat, file storage, assignments, etc.). Select Enable from the vertical ellipse or by dragging-and-dropping the panels to the upper navigation menu.

6.) Remember to hit Save

7.) Once added, you will now see Teams on the left-sided navigation bar

8.) You should now see a team created on Canvas with the same name as your course - click open and begin using Teams!
