2. Once you’re in the Virtual Lobby, you can browse the modules on the left side of the menu to see meeting highlights, read about our fantastic sponsors and exhibitors, and browse the program.
3. Select the date you want to see under the “Your Agenda” heading, and you’ll see all the sessions on that day. There will be a red button with “Start” (if you’re a chair or presenter) or “Join” (for audience members). Chairs and presenters can access the room up to 2 hours before their session starts; audience members will be able to join a session 5 minutes before the start time. All sessions are 60 minutes; all rooms will remain open 30 minutes after the session for anyone wanting to continue with Q&A or hold an informal discussion.
4. If you have host privileges (=all chairs and presenters who registered by March 26), you’ll see icons at the bottom of your session screen to mute/unmute, camera, share screen, and raise hand. You can activate closed captions on the bottom left and leave the room with the “leave” button on the bottom right.
