Getting Ready for Your Session

We'll walk you through everything you need to join your session. Follow the simple steps below. It only takes a few minutes.

Step-by-Step Zoom Setup

Choose your device below and follow the numbered steps. Check off each step as you go.

1

Open your web browser

Open the program you use to go on the internet. This is usually called Chrome, Safari, Firefox, or Edge.

2

Go to the Zoom download page

Type zoom.us/download into the bar at the very top of your browser and press Enter. Look for the button that says "Download" under "Zoom Workplace desktop app."

Tip: If a box pops up asking permission to download, click "Allow" or "Save."

3

Install Zoom

Find the downloaded file (usually at the bottom of your screen or in your Downloads folder) and double-click it. Follow the on-screen instructions to finish installing.

4

Open Zoom and allow microphone access

Open the Zoom app once it's installed. Your computer may ask "Allow Zoom to access your microphone?" Click "Allow" or "Yes." This lets other people hear you if you need to speak.

Tip: If you accidentally click "Don't Allow," you can fix this later in your computer's Settings under Privacy & Security.

5

Allow camera access

Zoom may also ask to use your camera. Click "Allow" or "Yes" so others can see you if needed. You can always turn your camera off during the session.

6

You're all set!

That's it. Zoom is installed and ready to go. When the session starts, just click the join link from your email and Zoom will open automatically.
