Audio Tips for Online Programs

For online programs, please remember to:

• join from your own device. Having multiple people on one device makes it very difficult to hear everyone.
• use a headset, if available. This lets everyone understand you more easily, cuts down on background noise, and prevents echo.
• mute your microphone when you are not speaking. This also cuts down on background noise.

These tips will help save time and prevent the need for trouble-shooting during the program. Thank you for your consideration!
