Get Ready to Join an Elluminate Live! Session

We STRONGLY recommend that you pre-configure your computer and test your connectivity to our Elluminate Live servers in the location you will be using prior to the session.

First, ensure that the computer you will use satisfies the minimum system requirements. Make sure you have your microphone, USB speakerphone or headset working properly with your computer to take full advantage of the audio capabilities during the session. This may be optional for some so please check with the organization or instructor moderating  the session you will attend. You must have are administrator rights to your computer so you can install the required software. If you are unsure, please contact your system administrator or technical coordinator.

Installing the Required Software and Testing

There are four steps with joining an Elluminate Live! session. Follow the information in the “First Time Users” section of the Elluminate Support page. Note that you must have admin rights to your computer.

Moderators

Moderators are responsible for setting up sessions prior to event, inviting participants and running the sessions. This includes all class materials and information  as well as ensuring that ALL participants are prepared for the session.

Please submit your information  to obtain a Moderator account for the Verizon Access New Jersey Elluminate Live! server. This is free for all ANJ members. Training will be required before you will receive your Moderator credentials. Moderators MUST be associated with a NJ institution and will be assessed on a one by one basis.

Moderators - What is the proper way to end a session?

Important! Properly ending a session is important, especially if you have recorded the session. Recordings will NOT be processed and made available until after the session has ended. Sessions will not end until every participant has left the session. It is the Moderators responsibility to make sure ALL participants have logged out of the session. Get detailed instructions here.
