Video Meetings

Request a Video ("Zoom") Meeting

LWVWA has two Zoom licenses for meetings of up to 100 attendees. If you need a larger size, your League can pay the difference to temporarily increase the meeting size. We purchase webinar licenses during candidate forum season that are also available for local Leagues to use.

• Request a Zoom Meeting
• Request a Zoom Webinar  (available for free during candidate forum season; otherwise available for a small fee)

This form will send an email to Amy, who will schedule the meeting ASAP and send the details to you. If you don’t hear from her within 24 hours,  send an email “nudge” to apeloff@lwvwa.org.

Help on How to Zoom 

The following are a few useful documents for using Zoom for meetings. These will be updated and expanded in the future as we learn more.

• How to Participate in a Zoom Meeting by Phone—New 5.20.20. This document is written specifically for participating in Council, but would be useful for any Zoom meeting.
• How to Host a Zoom meeting—New 5.7.20. This document explains how to claim the host controls of a meeting without the LWVWA login information for Zoom. This is our new procedure for Zoom meetings.
  
• How to join a Zoom meeting (with pictures!)—Updated 4.14.20. Includes information on passwords, waiting rooms, and connectivity issues.
  
• Helpful hints on how to conduct virtual meetings
• How to Use the Fancy Zoom Options—Spotlight Feature, Polling, Breakout Rooms, Pre-Registration, Yes/No, Facilitating Discussion

How to Host Large Virtual Meetings

We are still exploring options for how to put on larger virtual events. We will keep you updated on what we learn as we move into Annual Meeting season, as we want everyone to feel like they have viable backup options.

• Zoom Basics for Meeting Participants—A PowerPoint presentation to use at the start of large meetings to train people new to Zoom on how to use the different features.
• How to Participate in an Annual Meeting—A PDF with pictures that covers the same information that is in the PowerPoint. You may want to send this out to participants in advance of the meeting.
• Sample Annual Meeting Agenda—A Word Document that breakdown what Zoom features might be useful for different parts of the Annual Meeting.
