Zoom:
If you have never used Zoom before, we invite you to watch a YouTube tutorial video walking you through how to join a Zoom meeting. You can join a meeting from your smartphone, tablet, laptop, or desktop. You may choose to join with or without video depending on your device and comfort levels. Whatever device you decide to use, zoom will prompt you to download a free app. On your smartphone or tablet this app is called “ZOOM Cloud Meetings” and can be found in your ‘App Store” or equivalent.

Joining a Zoom Meeting
Each course that you are registered for will email you a unique Zoom link. This will be the same link you will use every week to log into your class. Consider placing a star on the email with the Zoom link for easy access week-to-week. Kindly, do not share this link with anyone. Please aim to arrive in your Zoom class 10-15 minutes early.
Unfortunately, Seniors College does not have the capacity to offer tech support. If you are feeling overwhelmed at the idea of online learning, consider talking to family and friends in your social networks for guidance and support.
I hope you find Zoom to be a satisfying way to engage in life-long learning, stay connected to the Seniors College community, all from the comfort of your own home!
