Tutoring Center Zoom Settings?
Hello,
I'm trying to find the correct settings to utilize Zoom as our virtual Writing Center. We have one tutor designated as a "greeter" each day log into the Zoom account, create the breakout rooms for all tutors on shift for the day, and make all incoming tutors co-hosts.
The issue we are running into is when a tutor tries logging into the account from a new device or location, they are required to verify themselves by checking the email address associated to the account. The central email account for the Writing Center is a gmail, which unfortunately has it's own 2-factor authentication that kicks a verification code to my own personal email. What this means is that any time a tutor is required to verify themselves to open the center, they need to contact me so I can check my email and give them a verification code to gain access to the gmail, so they can get another code to gain access to the Zoom account. This is a problem because I'm also a part-time instructor and am not always available to do this. Plus it's just several unnecessary steps that slow down the process of opening the center.
My question is: what sort of settings do other college tutoring centers or similar organizations use to allow multiple users the ability to open an account's personal meeting?
I have scoured the settings and am coming up empty handed and confused, and apparently my account type does not allow me the option to call support. I see that there is an "alternative hosts" option, but when attempting to add my tutors by their college-provided emails I get a pop up saying "only paid users can be added as alternative hosts," and I'm unsure why since their college accounts should be paid for.
Any tips or insight would be greatly appreciated!
