Joining a webinar
Joining a webinar is easy. Simply click on the unique link that was emailed to you by Zoom.
Note: If you are using a Chromebook you may be prompted to install a browser extension (if you haven't done so already).
Support
Are you having technical difficulties when installing or using the Zoom software? Do you need a webcam, headset, or a microphone? All support requests related to Zoom webinars, both technical and pedagogical, should be sent to webinars@essex.ac.uk.
Before your webinar starts
It is a good idea to install the Zoom software well before attending one of these online training sessions. Most desktop PCs on campus already have Zoom installed.
If you are using your own device, we recommended you install Zoom and Outlook plugin (both PCs and Macs are supported). Information on how to do this can be found on the following IT web page:
https://www.essex.ac.uk/staff/it-services/zoom
You can also install the Zoom app on your mobile phone (or tablet) – go to the relevant App store to find it. Chromebook users should install the Zoom Chromebook extension.
Note: Use your university credentials - SSO (single sign-on) if prompted to sign in to Zoom after installing.
