Stop Chasing Decisions in Email

Learn to send, respond to, and track approvals in Microsoft Teams, no IT background needed.

Are decisions getting lost in your inbox?

You send an email asking for approval. Days go by. You follow up. Eventually someone says yes, but now you can’t find the thread, nobody wrote it down, and you’re not sure which version of the document was the final one.

Sound familiar?

You’re not alone.

And there’s a better way.

The Approvals app in Microsoft Teams lets you send a formal request, collect a decision, and keep a clear record, all without leaving Teams. No more email chains. No more guessing. No more “Wait, did anyone actually approve this?”

In this short, practical course, you’ll learn exactly how to use Approvals in three focused lessons:

• Lesson 1: Understand what Approvals is, when to use it, and where it fits inside your Teams workflow
• Lesson 2: Create an approval request, add one or more approvers, attach files, and set an approval order
• Lesson 3: Respond to approvals you receive, track status, manage notifications, and understand the difference between Approvals and eSignatures

Every lesson comes with downloadable notes so you can follow along or review later.

This course is built for everyday Teams users; office admins, coordinators, nonprofit staff, and municipal employees, not IT professionals. If you can send a chat message in Teams, you’re ready for this course.

When the question is “Can we proceed?” Use Approvals.
