Hi,

If I want to make a colleague a co-host during a webinar, does this colleague need a webinar licence?

Thanks.

Hey Josephine,

Thanks for the question! Your webinar co-host, will not require a webinar license. Keep in mind, the co-host can only be assigned once the webinar has started. More info on webinar roles below:

I do need to make someone else host or co-host for a regular meeting next week when I cannot attend myself. If I cannot make him co-host before the meeting starts, so he can run the meeting, how can I do that please? I do not wish to have to cancel the whole meeting for everyone.

Oops! Does this refer to ZOOM Meeting or Webinar? I'm referring to ZOOM Meeting.

@PaulS Co-hosts cannot be assigned before a meeting. Only during.

What you'll need is to assign a alternative host. Steps to do this on your Zoom meeting are found below.

https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/208220166

Please note:

Zoom desktop client for Windows, macOS, or Linux: Global minimum version or higher
Zoom mobile app for Android or iOS: Global minimum version or higher
Both users need to be Licensed and on the same account
Alternative hosts must be signed in to Zoom with the correct account in order to be granted the host or co-host permissions
