We have multiple options for video/phone conferencing. It is highly recommended that the attendees be contacted beforehand to verify they have the correct software etc for the meeting so everything goes smoothly. Feel free to have them contact us via email: support@universityprep.org
1. Skype for Business. Everyone has a UPrep Skype for Business account that comes with our Office 365 subscription.
How to use: View the article on our Support Portal
OS requirements:
Win7 or later
Skype for Business on Mac only runs on OS X El Capitan or later versions.
Skype also has a conference bridge option, after signing into Skype, open Outlook go to the calendar then click "new Skype meeting" (in Outlook for mac click "online meeting") located in the ribbon along the top, invite participants as you normally would. You will see the phone number in the notes of the meeting with the dial in info.
*Skype for Business needs to be installed and signed in.
** If you are the meeting organizer and you are dialing in you have to enter your PIN in order to start the conference. The PIN would have been emailed to you from Microsoft.
2. "Meet" - a new feature with the Google Hangouts app. Everyone has access to this as well with our G Suite subscription.
how to use: basically go to meet.google.com and start a meeting.
Here are the instructions from from google: https://gsuite.google.com/learning-center/products/hangouts/get-started-meet/
Meet uses chrome so that must be installed. Some macs have issues downloading Chrome from safari, if so try this link: https://dl.google.com/chrome/mac/stable/GGRO/googlechrome.dmg
