Tech Tips #
Here are a few things to think about before and when you join:
- Choose a well-lit, quiet location where you will have good internet access.
- If joining with others from your team in the same location (on a large screen), you may all participate by having one person join the meeting.
- After joining the Zoom meeting, please make sure to rename yourself so that your first name, last name, and organization appear.
- Note: You may have to redo this if you disconnect from the meeting and rejoin.
- If you have any questions about Zoom or how to navigate the platform, please see these video tutorials.
- If you have any emergency issues or questions, please contact either Amy Dickerson at (661) 319-2989 or Conner Peckham at (503) 720-5071.
