All staff members with a University phone number have been contacted directly.

In May, the Faculty of Archaeology will switch to Teams Calling. This means that both outgoing and incoming phone calls will soon be handled via Microsoft Teams. You will remain reachable on the same University phone number you already use. The Teams calling interface is similar to the mobile calling interface we are all familiar with.
 
The main reason for this transition is that the use of Teams is now fully embedded within the University and, together with mobile calling, has largely replaced traditional telephony. In addition, Teams Calling improves colleagues’ availability, for example when working from home.

Do you make use of a University phone number (starting with 527) and did you not receive any information? Please reach out to redactie@arch.leidenuniv.nl.
