guests to my Team?
HSC employees and external users must be added as guests. Type the guest's entire email address and select the Add User as a Guest dropdown when it appears.

Who is considered a guest?
A guest is defined as someone who isn’t an employee, student, or member of West Virginia University with an active WVU account. This includes email addresses at HSC.
Anyone with a non-WVU consumer email account (e.g. http://outlook.com , gmail.com, etc.) can participate as a guest in a team with full access to all of its features. If the guest doesn’t yet have a Microsoft account associated with their email address, they will be directed to create one for free.
Please note that WVU will not provide troubleshooting support for guests and guest-side access issues.
