# Pear Deck for PowerPoint Online Administrator Installation Guide

> Deploy the Pear Deck PowerPoint Online Add-in to teachers across your Microsoft 365 organization

The Pear Deck for PowerPoint Online Add-in lets teachers add formative assessments and interactive slides directly to PowerPoint Online presentations. This guide is for administrators who want to deploy the Add-in to teachers in their organization. The Add-in is free, and teachers can create an unlimited number of presentations with it. If you are a teacher or individual Microsoft 365 user, see [Get Pear Deck for PowerPoint Online](/products/pear-deck/get-powerpoint-online-add-in).

## Deploy the Add-in to Your Organization

1. Before you begin, [determine whether Centralized Deployment of add-ins works for your organization](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/admin/manage/centralized-deployment-of-add-ins).
2. Follow the instructions on the Microsoft documentation page [Manage Deployment of Add-ins](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/admin/manage/manage-deployment-of-add-ins). Search for **Pear Deck** in the Microsoft Office store. You can deploy the Add-in to **Everyone**, **Specific users/groups**, or **Just me**.
3. After deployment is complete, teachers who received the Add-in can open Pear Deck in PowerPoint Online by selecting **Home** > **More options** > **Pear Deck**.

<Note>
  Pear Deck is only available in the Online version of PowerPoint. The desktop application is not supported.
</Note>

After deployment, teachers can learn the basics on the [Get Started with Pear Deck Slides](/products/pear-deck/get-started-with-slides) page.
