Zoom

Zoom is a collaboration tool that provides services such as video and audio conferencing, screen sharing and messaging across devices. Zoom can be used by faculty and staff to provide remote conferencing for their class or department. For more information about accessing Zoom, please see Zoom Video Conferencing.
