Zoom
As a KI employee, you can use Zoom for teaching, meetings and webinars for up to 500 participants, with the possibility of add-on licences for even more participants if needed.
Zoom can be used for tutoring between teachers and students or for meetings between students. You can also record a Zoom meeting and share the link with those who want to access the meeting afterwards but cannot attend in real-time.

Tips for safer dissertations in Zoom
- Mute all participants upon entry by default.
- Activate the waiting room to be able to approve who can join the meeting.
- Make yourself the only one to be able to share the screen.
- Lock the meeting when it has started and no further participants should be able to join. You will find this setting once the meeting has started.
- Have a co-host who can manage the administration in Zoom during your meeting. The co-host can for example accept people from the waiting room, remove participants or un-mute participants.
