Tips for the optimal online event
- Make sure that you can take part in your event from an undisturbed location. This will allow you to concentrate fully on your training.
- Take part in your event via a desktop PC or laptop/notebook. Participation via cell phone or tablet is not possible or only possible to a very limited extent.
- We recommend Google Chrome as the browser for participating in your event.
- Prepare your seat. Have paper and pens ready to take notes and stock up on drinks.
- Do the system check in good time. Ideally at least 2 days before the start of your event. If there are internal company settings that restrict access to your camera, for example, your IT department can support you in advance.
- Connect your headset and camera (if you are participating with a desktop PC) and set them as output media in the system settings before you enter the event room.
- To avoid distractions and disruptions and to increase connection stability, please close all applications that access the Internet. Apps, mail programs, VPN client, etc.
