Hello Alliemustangs7,

 

To host a Zoom meeting, you will need to have a Zoom account. You can sign up here. Once you have an account, you can schedule a meeting and invite your friends. Your friends don't need a Zoom account, but will need the Zoom software.

 

You can watch a Getting Started with Zoom Meetings recorded training session here or register  to attend a live training.

This session covers the basics of scheduling and hosting a meeting.

 

You can also refer to our Getting Started guide of help center articles here.

 

Hope this helps!
