Message from the Director

I hope your summer is off to a great start! In this month's newsletter, you'll see that we are highlighting upcoming events offered through the National Center for Faculty Development & Diversity.

We also have information below from the Office of Information Technology to help you navigate the campus transition to Zoom.

See you soon!

Zoom Officially Launched for Campus

Beginning  Monday, June 5, 2023, UNLV employees with a UNLV email account can schedule and host virtual meetings and online or hybrid classes using Zoom. Zoom has integrations with WebCampus and Panopto to create a better user experience.

To log into Zoom, use the UNLV Zoom site. The website includes documentation on the transition and Zoom functionality.

Existing Zoom Accounts Migrated

On June 1, Zoom accounts using university email addresses were moved to the UNLV Zoom account managed by the Office of Information Technology (OIT).  Follow the steps to verify your UNLVMail email address and switch your account to the UNLV Zoom account, which may have some different settings. If the process is not completed, your account will move to the UNLV’s account after three login attempts.

1. Log into Zoom at the UNLV Zoom site. 
2. Once a notification appears on the screen, click confirm your UNLVMail email address.
3. Check your UNLVMail for an email from Zoom (no-reply@zoom.us).
4. In the email, click switch to the new account to move to the UNLV Zoom account.  

Zoom Recordings from the past 180 days are migrated to the UNLV account and will be accessible.  Zoom accounts using Rebelmail will have UNLV Zoom access through December 2023. Learn more about what happens when Zoom accounts transition. 

June 30: Webex No Longer Available

Webex will be deactivated on June 30. Webex meetings should not be scheduled past June 29, and users need to save Webex recordings in another storage location. Recordings left in Webex will no longer be accessible after June 30. OIT can assist in downloading recordings saved in Webex after Jan. 1, 2023, and making them available upon request.
