Remote Participation Information

Remote Participation: A number of you are not able to travel to USC for the meeting. We will enable remote participation using Adobe Connect Pro, for both presentation sharing and audio using VOIP. To "join" the meeting virtually:

  1. Set your browser to: http://www.scec.org/virtual/scecmeet.

  3. We can test your connection prior to the workshop starting at 8:30am Pacific time.

We are using Adobe Connect for web conferencing. It has voice-over-IP capabilities, which we will use for audio (like a Skype call). All you need is an internet connection. If you have a headset to connect to your laptop, it will improve the sound on your end. We can walk you through the process before the meeting starts at 9am on March 7. You can call directly into the SCEC Boardroom (213) 821-2274 if there are still issues.
