Joining a Zoom Webinar: What You Need to Know

Are you considering hosting or joining a Zoom webinar? With its vast range of features and capabilities, it's essential to understand the different options available to ensure a seamless experience for all attendees. In this article, we'll explore the various ways to join a Zoom webinar and what you need to know.

One-Time Meeting Licenses

If you're looking to host a one-time meeting with up to 1000 participants, you can request a free license. This option is perfect for small gatherings or impromptu meetings. To arrange this, simply reach out to our team and we'll be happy to assist you.

Dedicated Webinar Licenses

Webinar Settings

When planning a webinar, it's crucial to consider the settings carefully. You can choose from a range of options, including one-time webinars with licenses for 500/1000/3000/5000 attendees. We recommend using our free application form to submit your request and ensure a smooth process.

University Webinar Licenses

As a University community member, you're entitled to access our webinar licenses. We have a limited number of licenses available for webinars with up to 500/1000/3000/5000 attendees. For meetings, we also offer large meeting licenses for up to 1000 participants.

Meeting vs Webinar

It's essential to understand the difference between a 'meeting' and a 'webinar'. While both options are available on Zoom, they serve different purposes. A webinar allows up to 10,000 participants and is ideal for events open to the public. In contrast, meetings are typically used for smaller gatherings or closed events.

Special Arrangements

If you need to host an event with more than 1000 attendees, we require special arrangements to be made by our ITSC team. To request a large meeting license, please submit your application using our form. We'll review your request and work with you to ensure a successful event.

In conclusion, joining a Zoom webinar requires careful consideration of the options available. By understanding the different licenses and settings, you can host a seamless and engaging event that meets your needs. Whether you're hosting a one-time meeting or a large-scale webinar, we're here to help you every step of the way.
