Instructions for chairs of virtual sessions
Please read the general instructions for chairs first. The instructions below apply specifically to chairing a session online.
- Follow the virtual access instructions and connect at least 10 minutes before the session starts.
- Identify yourself as the chair to the room assistant (“Angel”) through the Zoom chat and check that all speakers are present and identifiable by their names.
- Ask each speaker to share the presentation and turn on the camera and microphone when called.
- For questions, participants may raise their virtual hand or use the chat. Give them the floor in turn or read their questions aloud.
- Keep your microphone muted when not speaking. The Angel will assist with technical or onsite issues if needed.
