Tech Tip of the Week: Zoom Meeting Co-hosts Can Now Facilitate Breakout Rooms

Zoom has made an update to its meeting breakout rooms. Now, co-hosts in a meeting are able to create, assign, launch and join breakout rooms during a meeting, giving them the same management control over breakout rooms as the meeting host has. 

This is welcome news to our staff who would like to facilitate a meeting as the host but also delegate the breakout room duties to a co-host. This feature launched in Zoom version 5.4.6, so be sure to update your Zoom software through the Zoom app or the Self Service app on your computer. If you have any questions, contact David Hammer, Multimedia Specialist.
