1. Link to join meetings
Zoom is used for meetings using this link →https://zoom.us/j/5755753456. If you haven't used Zoom before, there’s more info at the bottom of this page.

2. Group Protocols
Each man agrees to follow the protocols in a meeting, to make it a safe place for all men to be vulnerable and grow.
   1. I come here with good intentions
   2. All feelings and emotions are OK.
   3. It's OK to pass
   4. I won't give advice to another man unless he requests it.
   5. I will only speak for myself and use “I language”
   6. I will maintain Confidentiality
   7. I come here unaffected by any mind-altering substances or outside distractions
   8. The facilitators may remind me of these protocols.

3. Tips for using "Zoom"
Before you join the call, please ensure that:
 * You are NOT in a public place or driving your car.
 * You are on your own in the room (please make people aware that you’re on a confidential call).
 * You manage children, deliveries, feed the dog/stroke the cat beforehand so we’re uninterrupted.
* You turn off your phone or put it on silent, resist checking notifications
* Take a leak, have water with you etc. so you don’t disturb the meeting by leaving and so you don’t miss out!

USING ZOOM
When joining the Zoom meeting, please select "join meeting with computer audio".
On a PC or Mac, the best way to be part of the group is to use the "Gallery View", rather than the "Speaker View". We cover this in the live test and if you’re unsure, please don’t hesitate to ask.

If you have background noise where you are, you can mute and unmute your device by
  PC – Clicking on the “Mute” icon at the bottom left of the Zoom Screen or “Alt Shift A”
  MAC  – Clicking on the “Mute” icon at the bottom left of the Zoom Screen or “CMD Shift A”
  Android Tablet or Phone – Press the screen and then click on the “Audio” icon at the bottom left of the screen.
  iPhone or IPad - Tap the screen then tap the microphone icon in the top menu-bar that briefly appears.

Tip - Headphones are better quality than speakers and they create a more confidential space for us all.

USING ZOOM FOR THE FIRST TIME?
You can install or test Zoom with this link https://zoom.us/test. If you’ve used Zoom before, it will launch a test meeting with just you in it. If you haven’t used Zoom before, it will prompt you to install a small App – you only need to do this once. Please do this now or before your first meeting.

Zoom have some good videos on how to join a meeting at https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/201362193-How-Do-I-Join-A-Meeting- with different sections for Windows/Mac/iOS/Android etc.

Please note we do not have an option to join by telephone, as our meetings require each man to show up on the screen.
