This instruction sheet is my first draft, so I would appreciate any corrections/edits/etc. I have added the same document, both in Microsoft Word and Adobe pdf, hoping both come through...

Scenario:

This handout is for Zoom Pro hosts, like me, who need to schedule the meetings (therefore the meetings use my host settings...such as captions) but where I cannot attend the actual meeting due to other commitments.

I have updated the documents--note the "last update" date in the footer, so you can toss previous ones. Again I attached both the Microsoft Word & PDF Version of the same document.

Thanks for your input.

My Disclosure (smile): This is a collaborative document, so you can email me edits/corrections to it. Obviously, it is not professional...just "home grown" as it reflects my experience with trial and error. If you want a practice session, just let me know. That is where I learn the most. The most recent copy is below. (Remember to check the Last Update is in the footer.) Again I add 2 versions of the same document: pdf and word.

Today I tried something new with the "Host Key" meeting (as I will call it).

I set up the scheduled meeting and sent the meeting link to a participant. She entered the meeting (without me being present) and claimed the host key. She became the Host of the meeting. 

While she was the Host (of my meeting) I attended another Zoom meeting, without incident.

I was elated that this happened seamlessly! Please pass along your experiences with this situation.

I still have to test the following scenario:

What is the advantage of me, not attending my meeting? Well, it is the fact that the meeting that I scheduled operates with my default host settings...which, in my case, it may mean that they can have zoom captions (live transcript) since I have a Zoom Pro account.
