Technical Requirements
Here is some additional information regarding the Zoom platform that might be helpful for you:
• The training commences at 9:00 AM/1:00PM. As a courtesy to all attendees, arrivals who are 5 minutes late will not be admitted.
• If you have not used Zoom before, please click the link 10 minutes prior to the meeting as you may need to download a small app.
• We recommend that participants turn their cameras on so that the trainer and fellow participants can see and talk to everyone’s smiling faces.
• As a general rule we request participants start with their microphones muted/off. You can communicate with the trainer by typing questions into the chat function. You can also "raise your hand" through a function in the Participants section.
• If there are technical problems and you lose the connection (get kicked out of the zoom meeting) - go back to the link above to login and re-connect.
• If possible, a wired internet connection (not Wi-Fi) may make for a smoother viewing experience.
• Friendly reminder: Zoom does not work while logged into Squamish Nation Citrix.
