January Zoom Update

We are back for the Spring term, so it is again time to ensure that your Zoom client is up to date! You will want to be sure to take the time to check for updates to the Zoom client even if you primarily utilize Zoom from the web- as Zoom accesses the on-device client in order to operate your camera, mic, and meeting controls, making it important to have the most recent version to ensure access to the most recent features and security settings.

More information on how to update your client can be found via Zoom’s support site:  Update your Zoom Client. Note, if you do not have the Zoom client pinned to your computer desktop or dock, you may need to follow these directions to locate the program on your computer.

Don’t want to have to remember to make the updates yourself? You can now enable auto-update.

New on January 24th- Add Video to Your Waiting Room

Starting on January 24th, users will be able to add a pre-recorded video to their waiting room for attendees to watch while they are waiting. This is a great way to bring some levity with a “for fun” video, to show related content that attendees might find interesting, or to add instructional pre-materials that will be part of the day’s lesson or meeting topic.

Once this feature is live, information be able to be reviewed in to their Waiting Room instructions.
