Once you've set up your presentation, add hosts, speakers, and moderators to help run your webinar.

NOTE: Each team member counts as one registrant towards your webinar's maximum number of registrations.

1 Understand team member roles. To make sure your webinar goes smoothly, make sure the right people are given the right role. You can add the following team member roles:

  • Hosts can control who is an active participant and who can share their video, audio, and screen in a live collaboration presentation.

  • Speakers can share their video, audio, and screen during a live collaborative presentation. You can also choose to feature speakers on the Home page of your webinar.

  • Moderators can control the engagement content during a presentation, including deleting chat messages, changing the status of Q&A questions, and controlling polls during the webinar.

2 Add an additional host, if necessary. By default, you will be added as a host for the webinar.

To add more hosts, begin by selecting your webinar. From the left-hand navigation, click Team Members, then Add team member. Under Role, check the box next to Host.

Add the host's first name, last name, and email. They'll need to use the email address to log in to the webinar and it cannot be changed.

Click Save.

An email will be sent to the host informing them of their role.

Repeat this step for any additional hosts you want to add for your webinar.

3 Add a speaker. From the Team Members page, click Add team member, then check the box next to Speaker.

Add the speaker's first name, last name, and email. They'll need to use the email address to log in to the webinar and it cannot be changed.

Determine if their profile should display on the webinar site. If so, you can add a profile picture, company, title, and bio if desired.

Click Save.

An email will be sent to the speaker informing them of their role.

Repeat this step for each speaker in your webinar.

4 Add a moderator. If you will be using chat, Q&A, or polls during your webinar, it is recommended to have at least one moderator.

Click Add team member, then check the box next to Moderator.

Add the moderator's first name, last name, and email. They'll need to use the email address to log in to the webinar and it cannot be changed.

Click Save.

An email will be sent to the moderator informing them of their role.

Repeat this step for additional moderators in your webinar.

5 Remove a team member, if necessary. To remove a team member, click the icon to the right of the team member's name, then click Remove. Click Remove team member to confirm.

They will no longer have host, speaker, or moderator permissions, but will still be able to attend the webinar and will count towards your total registrations.

6 Edit a team member, if necessary. To edit a team member, click the icon to the right of the team member's name, then click Edit team member. You can change their role and edit their name. If they are a speaker, you can update their profile picture, bio, company, and title.

When you're done, click Save.

7 Share instructions with team members, if necessary. Consider sending guidance to your hosts, speakers, and moderators.
