The University is encouraging online platforms for events, minimising risk wherever possible. A decision-making process flow has been developed to assist organisers in deciding in what format their Function should proceed in times of COVID-19.
For an in-depth guide on how to organise a webinar event check out Zoom Webinar User Guide (PDF, 509KB). For Zoom Webinar backdrops, please see Zoom Webinar Banners file.
Holding a function online has several advantages:
- No attendance or time limits;
- No FoC Application required (unless advertising will occur on campus or using an ANU Venue);
- No risk assessment or contact tracing required;
- Weekly/recurring Functions can be held at consistent times;
- No additional cleaning required;
- Greater market reach;
- Increased capacity for attendance.
ANU ITS has some great information online to help understand and run Zoom Events and meetings.
