The complete recording of the event, which runs over 2 hours in length, is in need of audio cleanup before it can be properly distributed throughout the Federation. We will post the full recording when it is ready.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>In the meantime, we realize that many NFB members are interested in using tutorials from Zoom training such as ours as resources to assist them in accessing our virtual national convention. Therefore, we have provided below Dropbox links to 2 recorded demonstrations, one of which was played at the event and one of which was recorded after it. These tutorials address the most important aspect of Zoom for convention attendees: joining and participating in a Zoom meeting. More specifically, these tutorials focus on using Zoom on a Windows PC and a mobile device respectively.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Joining a Zoom meeting on Windows: <a href="https://www.dropbox.com/s/cqger15blsbigzf/Joining%20a%20Zoom%20Meeting%20on%20Windows.mp4?dl=0">https://www.dropbox.com/s/cqger15blsbigzf/Joining%20a%20Zoom%20Meeting%20on%20Windows.mp4?dl=0</a><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Joining a Zoom meeting on a mobile device: <a href="https://www.dropbox.com/s/7h8vrmo6utvi38b/Joining%20a%20Zoom%20Meeting%20on%20a%20Mobile%20Device.mp3?dl=0">https://www.dropbox.com/s/7h8vrmo6utvi38b/Joining%20a%20Zoom%20Meeting%20on%20a%20Mobile%20Device.mp3?dl=0</a><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>In an effort to help our Federation family enjoy stress-free access to our virtual meeting platforms, our affiliate President has appointed a tech support team led by the coordinators of our June 27 workshop. If you have any further questions before or during the convention and would like to use us as a resource, please reach out to Chris Nusbaum using the contact information provided in the below signature. He will then either try to answer your questions or connect you with another member of the team. You can also find us on CrowdCompass, our new virtual convention platform!
