How to Log into Zoom to Participate in the Live Conference
Make sure you have Zoom installed and that it is up to date prior to the start of the Conference. It will take a few minutes to install. If you do not have Zoom installed, the Zoom link in your registration confirmation email will prompt you to install it.
At the time of your registration, you would have received 2 Confirmation Emails from National Autism Association/Wendy Fournier via Zoom. You had to register for the Believe and Achieve tracks separately to receive access to both. All attendees will receive access to recorded lectures after the conference, so you won't miss anything. At the end of the live lectures, attendees will be able to ask questions.
To find your Zoom emails search your inbox for:
Subject: NAC 2021 - ACHIEVE TRACK Confirmation
Subject: NAC 2021 - BELIEVE TRACK Confirmation
There will be several ways to join a Zoom Webinar, but this will be the quickest way to gain access. Choose which track you want to watch live. Scroll down your Zoom email until you see the following and click on "Click Here to Join":
"Join from a PC, Mac, iPad, iPhone or Android device
Click Here to Join"
For more instructions, refer to Zoom's help page: https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/115004954946-Joining-and-participating-in-a-webinar-attendee-#h_7f263058-2b5c-4e12-9807-a056dc7c33cd
If you are still having trouble connecting, we will have someone available in the Messenger feature (in the lower right corner). Please enter you email that you used during registration.
READ THIS
It is very important that you keep your Zoom Invite Emails handy, as you will be logging on at the start of each lecture! Attendees will be disconnected at the END of EACH LECTURE and redirected back to the Conference Schedule Page of this website. Choose which lecture you want to see next and use the same links from those emails to reconnect. Lectures will begin as soon as the next presenter is ready and attendees will be let into the webinar from the waiting room. We have a tight schedule to try and bring you the most information as possible. As we stated earlier, all lectures will be recorded for your private viewing after the conference.
New Location
The Valley Forge Casino Resort features onsite hotel, bars, restaurants and activities.
A fun networking event is being planned to help attendees relax and make connections.
After the conference, attendees can walk to the Casino side of the campus to play games and unwind.
