How to: work from home?
Please see our page with advice on working from home
Note:
- Please use VPN only when required, as it impairs the UiB infrastructure/network performance
- If you experience slow performance or interruptions when working from home, try using desktop.uib.no (a.k.a. "skrivebord.uib.no"). This gives a complete "UiB desktop" and has moderate requirements for network capacity.
How to: Digital collaboration?
Teams is UiB's preferred platform for digital collaboration. It offers functionality for online meetings, file and desktop sharing, chat, task management, etc. Read more about Teams here.
How to: Online meetings?
- Use Teams
- Use Skype for Business
- Use Outlook (to schedule a meeting in Teams or Skype). PS! The Teams button in Outlook is not yet available to all users.
- We are currently working on making Zoom available as well.
Note! We recommend using a headset with a microphone, not the computer's built-in speaker and microphone.
More information in the purchase guide. Therefore, remember to have your headset available, also off-campus. If you do not have a headset, contact us via UiBhelp.
Even if you only have a headset without microphone, the sound will be improved by using this in combination with the computer's built in microphone.
