Best Practices
It is important to test your set up prior to the day of the event to ensure that everything is working properly. Have a friend or colleague join your Zoom meeting as a test run. (You can start this meeting to practice any time before the actual meeting and it will not change the scheduled meeting in any way). Make any adjustments to the camera angle and background as needed. If your computer supports the use of a virtual background, follow Zoom's steps on a using a virtual background.
Conduct the meeting a quiet place with minimal background noise. Use a headset if you have one.
Notes
If you have any issues joining via computer audio, use your phone as a backup for an audio source. To join audio via phone, follow the instructions outlined on the Join Audio by Phone page.
