1. Navigate to 'Microsoft Teams admin center' (https://admin.teams.microsoft.com) and log on as a global administrator user.
2. In the left-hand pane, select Users.

3. Use the search option to find the user.
4. Click 'View polices' against the required user, as shown in the image below.

5. Click Edit, as shown in the image below.

6. For the following seven Teams policy categories, assign either RM Staff or RM Student, depending upon the role of the user:
   • Meeting policy
   • Messaging policy
   • Live events policy
   • App permission policy
   • App setup policy
   • Calling policy
   • Teams policy
