Note: When joining the Zoom meeting, you will see "Host Will Be With You Soon". Hang tight, we know you're there and ready for testing. While waiting, view the video displayed for final pointers and encouragement. This is a great time to test your Zoom audio and microphone. On the bottom of your Zoom screen, locate "Test Computer Audio", click on it and then Test Speaker and Mic. Follow the instructions there to verify that you can hear Zoom and that Zoom can here you!
