Guide to Attend SSI’s Zoom classes...
Step 1: Check out the Class Descriptions posted on the SSI website https://www.ssipdx.org/class-
schedule.html to preview what classes are being offered and note the ones you want to participate in.
Step 2: Check the weekly Newsletter for the link to the class you want to participate in and click on it.
If the link to a Zoom event doesn't take you to the class you want (This is a Zoom issue, not the Newsletter),
USE THE CLASS ID AND PASS CODE INSTEAD.
● Log in to your free Zoom app (https://zoom.us/)
● Click on “Join Meeting”
● Use the Class ID and Pass Code from the Zoom invitation in the Newsletter to join the class meeting.
Step 3: About 10-15 minutes before the start of class, click on the participation link in the Newsletter.
Step 4: If you have the Zoom application (app) installed, you will go directly to the Zoom Waiting Room and
wait to be admitted to the class. (Be sure your app is the latest version of Zoom. See the note below.)
Notes:
● If you do NOT have the Zoom application (app) already installed you will be asked to download the FREE
Zoom app before joining the class. (It is not necessary to have the Zoom app to participate in an SSI class -
however, you will have better tools to make the most of your class experience if you have the Zoom app.)
● Zoom customers are now required to keep their Zoom software no more than three months behind the
current version. If you are running an older version of Zoom, you will be prompted to perform an update.
This takes a little time--so if you suspect that your Zoom software is out of date, you may wish to log into
an SSI activity a few minutes early to ensure that you are admitted on time.
