What is Adobe Connect?

Adobe Connect allows you to collaborate and share meetings, presentations, documents, screens and much more over the Internet in real time. Hold a virtual group project meeting, share, critique and work collaboratively on papers. You control who gets invited to your meeting. Meetings can be broadcast using audio, video, or just by chat.

While many of the features of Adobe Connect are limited to faculty and staff, each West Lafayette student has their own meeting room.

To get started
  1. Logging in to your meeting room
  2. A meeting room has already been created for you. To learn the location of your meeting room, go to your Purdue Career Account web page and look for the link named Your meeting room URL. Clicking on this link will log you into Adobe Connect Professional and take you directly into your meeting room. Use this link to upload content prior to starting your meeting.

    Please note: Some options available within Adobe Connect are unavailable to students. For example, students may not create new meeting rooms or access recorded meetings.

  3. Inviting guests to your meeting
  4. To invite others to participate in your meeting, just email them the URL of your meeting room. When potential meeting participants click on the URL you have provided them for the meeting, they will log in by typing their Purdue career account username and password.

  5. Keeping your meeting private
  6. By default, meeting rooms are private. If someone tries to enter your meeting room uninvited, they will see this message.

  7. Training and Support
  8. Adobe maintains excellent support documentation and videos on their website. A good place to start is: Adobe Connect: Getting Started
