Introduction
A Microsoft Teams integration allows users to receive program notifications and execute many program activities within their Teams desktop or mobile display, without logging directly onto the Chronus platform.
The requirements for this integration are active Chronus & MS Teams accounts and the Chronus App made available to users immediately by default, or for installation from the Teams Marketplace.
For admin instructions see: Microsoft Teams: Chronus App Integration
MS Teams for Chronus allows users to be on top of any updates to your mentoring program and take actions immediately within the Teams application via Chronus App:
Receive notifications about mentoring program updates and activity
Take action on mentoring requests
Communicate with your mentoring partner
Get reminders of your upcoming meetings
Respond to surveys
Admins also receive notifications via Teams when a message is sent to the Admin Inbox.
