CCC Confer has transitioned to ConferZoom, a new web-based conferencing tool by Zoom for online meetings and classes. ConferZoom easily integrates with Canvas, making it simple for students to connect with their instructors for classes and office hours. Connections support all operating systems and browsers, including iOS and Android mobile devices. Experience high quality video and audio, desktop screen sharing, whiteboard with annotations, waiting and breakout rooms, and more. Record locally or to the cloud, and access recordings anytime from any device.

ConferZoom accounts are provided to all employees of the California Community Colleges by the CCC TechConnect project. Students do not need an account to participate in your sessions, streamlining the organizational process in support of student success.

CCC TechConnect will be hosting an informative webinar on September 12 at noon to discuss using ConferZoom and will answer any questions you may have about the tool. 

Register for the webinar.
