If you need to invite a guest into a session in Teams and want to give them the ability to present, the below instructions will show you how. (note this works if you add the guest as a guest member into a module team as well)
Outlook method (via personal calendar)
1. Open your Outlook calendar
2. Create a New Event & enter the required details > add the external email address in the invitation box > Click the slider to enable ‘Teams meeting’ > Then select ‘Send’
3. Once your meeting has been setup, your externally invited presenter will receive an email with a joining link.
4. When it is time to start the meeting, your guest will join and you will receive a message within the session to accept their entry into the meeting. Once you have accepted their request you can make them a presenter.
5. Select the participants area and click on the three dots next to your guest and select ‘Make attendee’
(Note once you select this, you will see a message on screen, click on the ‘Change’ button to activate their role change.)
6. Click back on the three dots next to your guest and you now have the option to ‘Make a presenter’
Note: Guests are unable to record & will not have access to post event chat or recordings (recordings can be made available by downloading from Stream and uploading to your My Folder)
