HINZ 2022 - General VCD guide for ATTENDEES

Messages You can view all sent and received messages within My Messages . We may also send you regular updates and information, so it is important to regularly check this page for new messages. Messages are sent and received on an individual basis, and not viewed as a thread of messages. Once reply to a new message it is recommended you Archive the received message. This action enables you to keep track of which messages are new, and which messages have been read and an action has been taken. An attendee will receive an email notification (default setting) for every message they receive in the VCD, but it is highly recommended that an attendee regularly checks ‘My Messages’ to see their new messages. Contacts This shows all the attendees you have added via the Attendees tab. You can contact another attendee by sending a message or requesting a meeting via the platform. My Notes You can access and amend all notes you have made about a contact, sponsor, and sessions. These notes are will not be visible to anyone else. My Schedule My Schedule will show all sessions that you have chosen to attend in the AGENDA tab be selecting the + icon. You can gain access to the session, remove a session, and add notes. You can also search for a session in My Schedule by using the search bar across the top. My Sponsors My Sponsors contains all exhibitors and sponsors that have been added. You can contact a sponsor or exhibitor by either sending a message or requesting a meeting. When requesting a meeting there will be a choice of available time slots and an area to provide details of the meeting description. Once submitted, the meeting will appear as pending in My Schedule . Library Media items such as videos will automatically end up here when you save sessions by clicking the ‘+’ icon beside sessions. Meetings Within the app you can receive meetings requests and messages from other attendees, exhibitors and sponsors. ( Note:ameeting with a company is separate from a meeting with an individual attendee . A meeting with an exhibitor/sponsor will show the company name as the participant in My Schedule .) Meeting requests will be sent to their email address (remember to check junk/spam). Meetings will also appear under the My Schedule. The meeting room is available five minutes before the scheduled start time. The video meeting functionality is delivered inside the platform via web-based software called JITSI which will automatically open a new tab. If possible, you may consider setting up and running a test meeting with colleagues to ensure your computer and firewall permissions are set up correctly.
