Zoom isn't just for videoconferencing – Zoom is now the official service for audio conferencing for UA staff, faculty, and students! No need for special phones or equipment.

Set up an audio conference yourself by signing in to Zoom and selecting "Schedule a Meeting."

Log in at https://arizona.zoom.us.

Zoom audio meeting participants will be able to:

  • Join the meeting online using their computer's microphone and speakers.
  • Call in with a landline or mobile phone. (Zoom call-in number options have 646 and 669 area codes, which are a toll call for anyone who has to pay for long distance charges with their carrier. To avoid tolls, join the meeting online.)

Hosts can also record the meeting with Zoom.

For more information on audio conferencing with Zoom, visit: https://it.arizona.edu/documentation/using-zoom-audio-conferencing.

If you experience issues using Zoom, contact the 24/7 IT Support Center at (520) 626-TECH (8324).

Please note: HIPAA-protected information should not be shared in Zoom. A secured campus Zoom option is currently being developed for conferencing where HIPAA-protected information can be shared. This feature will be available in late February and a campus communication will be distributed at that time.

The University's operated-assisted telephone conferencing service (Conference Bridge) will be discontinued February 28.
