Zoom Meeting Instructions for the Annual General Meeting

Changing Your Name in Zoom

Step 1 – Click on PARTICIPANTS in the Zoom toolbar at the bottom of the screen.

Step 2 – In the participant list select your name and click on the “” (Three dot button).

Step 3 – Click on Rename.

Step 4 – A new box will appear. Put in your full name so we can easily identify you during the meeting. Click on CHANGE.

Microphone/Video Test

You can test your computer’s audio setup (speakers and microphone) at any time using the official Zoom Test.

Mute

We ask that all attendees MUTE themselves during the presentation to avoid unnecessary background noise and if preferred, do not click Start Video if you do not wish to be seen by other participants.

Click the MUTE button (and the Stop Video button if desired) in the bottom left corner.

Speaking

If you are a Voting Member, Scholarship Recipient or Volunteer Award winner and you have confirmed that you will be speaking, please ensure that your microphone and/or video is working. We will be providing an Order of Business for attendees who have been invited to speak so that they are aware of the order of the agenda.

If you happen to be accidentally muted when it is your turn to speak, our host will give you a nudge to UNMUTE. (See above to mute/unmute)

Comments/Questions/Chat

For anyone wishing to comment or raise a question, please use the chat function. Click the CHAT button on the bottom toolbar to open up the chat window. Your messages will appear to every one in the meeting by default or you can choose a specific participant to send a message to.
