At a Glance

Do you have a guest speaker joining a class session, webinar, or other online events at MIT Sloan? Request support from our team so we can help you at every step.  

During your consultation, we will:

  • ensure we understand the details of the event; and 
  • facilitate test calls and rehearsals that may be in the room you’re using (schedule permitting). 

On the day of your event:

  • We will have an AV Specialist in the room to ensure the technology is functioning correctly and to control the cameras. 
  • Your remote guest speaker will be able to see and hear you and your students if they ask any questions. The rooms have microphones built into the ceiling, so there’s no need to pass a microphone around. 

Submit Request Form

To request AV Support for a remote guest speaker, complete this form.

What to Include:

  1. Under Conferencing, select Video conference or Webinar.
  2. Under Would you like a rehearsal, select Yes or No.
    • Rehearsals are with a member of our AV team, anyone from the teaching team, and the remote guest speaker. They do not include a connection to a classroom. They are remote sessions to verify that everything will work well.
  3. Under Meeting Link, provide the Zoom link for the session. If requested, we’ll use your Zoom link for both the rehearsal and the event.
