- Laptop computer – Has a built-in camera, microphone, and speakers or headphones

Haven’t used Zoom before?
- Before the meeting, download and install Zoom on your device (Mac, PC, tablet, or phone) from https://zoom.us/support/download. It’s also available from the Apple App Store or the Google Play Store.
- A few minutes before the meeting, click on the meeting zoom link. This will open your browser and launch the Zoom app. When the screen displays “Zoom Meetings,” click “Open link” and you will see the meeting. If Zoom asks your permission to use your computer camera and/or microphone, click “Yes.”
Save time by downloading the app in advance of the meeting. Otherwise, when you click the meeting link, Zoom will prompt you at that time to download the app in order to attend the meeting.
