Scheduling privilege is designed for a user or executive assistance:

  • You can assign or delegate a user or multiple users in your account to schedule meetings on your behalf. 
  • You can also schedule meetings on behalf of a user (or multiple users) that has assigned you scheduling privilege. 
  • You and the assigned scheduler will need to have previously signed in their  ESU Licensed Zoom accounts.
  • Users with Scheduling Privilege on your account will be able to manage and act as an alternative host for all meetings.

Give scheduling privilege to someone else:

1) Go to emporiastate.zoom.us. Log in with your ESU username and password.
