A: Most concurrent sessions (webinar-style meetings) will have the Zoom room embedded inside the Pathable page. (For security, no one will have access to the direct Zoom links). This allows you to view the session even if your device or organization limits Zoom access. When you’re in the Pathable room, you’ll see the video on the left and the chatbox on the right.

When you “Join a live meeting,” you may experience a brief delay and see a gray or black box as the embedded video loads.

If the embedded format shown above isn’t working, you also have the option to use the Zoom app instead. This will open a new Zoom window. (Find it directly under the video window in Pathable.) If you are watching the video within the session page and experiencing audio issues, please hover your mouse over the lower-left corner of the video player to adjust audio settings.  

A: It depends! There are three types of virtual sessions, each noted with a tag on the Pathable schedule.

Live Webinar: Keynotes, Super Sessions, and classroom sessions are hosted in Zoom webinar rooms. Only speakers can be on video and unmute themselves. Participants are in listen or view-only mode.

Hands-On Learning Sessions or Live Networking: Hosted in Zoom meeting rooms (what many of us use in our day-to-day lives). Anyone—speakers or participants—can be on video and unmute themselves if they choose. At 340B, we mostly use this setup for networking sessions such as coffee and after-chats.

Live Chat: Our byte-sized sessions feature prerecorded video, and the speakers are available live to answer questions via the chat box in Pathable. There will be no video or audio Q&A.

A Note: If your organization or device limits Zoom access, you may not be able to unmute or go on video, but you should still be able to view the content and use the chat room. 

A: Yes, you can use mobile devices to access and participate in the event.

Best Practice: Please ensure that your mobile device is connected to a stable internet connection. A connection of 3 Mbps or higher is recommended.
