Camera & Microphone
Note that most program sessions on the Union platform occur in “Webinar Format.” This means that you will be able to see and hear the teacher, but you will not be able to turn your camera or microphone on.
Some programs on the Union platform also include “Meeting Format” sessions during which both teachers and students may be seen and heard. For best results, you will need an internal or external microphone and camera. Please review our IMS Online Etiquette page and the Using Zoom page before attending.
