Skype/Lync Migration Starting Tomorrow and What It Means for You
Skype/Lync messaging for faculty and staff will be migrated to the Microsoft Office 365 cloud from Tuesday, Nov. 29, to Friday, Dec. 2. As each faculty and staff member is migrated, they could experience a brief interruption in service and will be required to log into Skype or Lync again.
This migration is part of the Achieve IT: Collaborate Everywhere project to improve messaging, email and calendaring services at the University of Arkansas. Learn more about the Office 365 migration for faculty and staff.
