Using Zoom

Here’s what you’ll need to use Zoom:

• A steady broadband connection: Zoom recommends 1 to 3 Mbps up/down.


• A device (desktop computer, laptop, tablet, smartphone) with a web camera and microphone.


• If your device does not have a microphone, a Bluetooth headset will also work well.

3 Tips for Getting the Most from Live Virtual Classroom Training:

• A Quiet Space

  
  Where possible, it’s best to find a quiet spot for your training. Setting up in a room free from noise or distractions is best.
  
  If this is not possible for you, using earphones can help you to focus.

• Sit Comfortably

  
  Although we take breaks during training, we recommend choosing a setting that will help you to stay focused and comfortable throughout the sessions.
  
  - Choose a seat that supports you well.
  - Position your screen at eye level.
  - Adjust your screen brightness and volume to your preferred levels.
  - Keep a glass of water within reach.
  - Make sure you have stationery handy for any notes you may wish to take.
  - Visit the bathroom before training begins.

• Log on 5 minutes early

  
  When it’s time for training to begin, your tutor will admit you to the session. However, to avoid a last-minute scramble grabbing the link and getting set up, we recommend connecting a few minutes early.
