Introduction
You don’t have to travel to meet. With Adobe Connect software and a webcam, CSR offers video-enhanced discussion (VED) as an alternative approach to smaller face-to-face review meetings. If you have access to high speed internet, you can participate in a video conference review meeting in your home or office. Check to see if your network connection supports LAN speed.
Speed is OK? Great! You can use Breeze. Go on and read the overview, details for software and hardware setup and procedures for how to participate in a review meeting; then watch the short video clips that show you about the software installation, audio setup and the user interface. When you are comfortable with the software and procedures, come back do a live-test!
Seeing is believing. Let’s start.
