Zoom instructions

You can participate in the workshops on your computer either through the Zoom app or your browser, and participation on a mobile device is also possible.

If you haven’t used Zoom before, you can test it in advance at https://zoom.us/test. In the meeting room created for testing you can test your audio and microphone.

If you attend Zoom events from your computer, we recommend downloading the Zoom application. The downloadable application is more versatile than the browser version of Zoom. However, it is also possible to participate via a browser, in which case we recommend using the Google Chrome browser, which works best with Zoom.

 

Installing the Zoom application on your computer

  • The file zoominstaller.exe is downloaded into your computer. When the download is complete, open the file.
  • It may take a while to install the application. Follow the instructions. After this the box you see below opens. The installation is now complete
