I am also getting the same error.

New-Team -DisplayName $teamName -Description $teamDescription -Visibility $teamVisibility -Template EDU_Class

I have installed below Microsoft Teams Powershell module

[MikaelBSB]

I have the same version for the module MicrosoftTeams (1.1.4) and my version for Powershell is 5.1.19041.1

Regretfully, at this moment only the 0.9.6 module supports the -Template parameter; see https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/teams/new-team?view=teams-ps:

_IMPORTANT: Using this cmdlet to create a new team using a template is still in preview. You can install and use the preview module from the PowerShell test gallery. For instructions on installing and using the Teams PowerShell preview module, see Install the pre-release version of the Teams PowerShell module (https://docs.microsoft.com/microsoftteams/install-prerelease-teams-powershell-module)._

I was hoping the 1.1.4 would finally have support, but apparently it still does not.

Hello @MikaelBSB and @Kaliyani as @Bart-Hoofd kindly says here, the -Template parameter is part of the Public Preview module, which current version is 1.1.3-preview

Hope this information helps you

So am I correct in understanding that the only way to get this to work is install version 1.1.3-preview until Microsoft finally gets these all integrated together in the latest release? It is baffling how things are in preview for longer than new features are released and published in the GA. I found that you cannot attempt to do this with 1.1.4 installed and you must uninstall the other versions of the MicrosoftTeams module and ONLY install the 1.1.3-preview. You can do this via "install-module MicrosoftTeams -AllowPrerelease -RequiredVersion 1.1.3-preview -allowclobber". Hopefully this helps someone else.

i have uninstall the module MicrosoftTeams 1.1.4 and install the version 1.1.3-preview. It works perfect for -Template parameter
