What is the platform of conference?
The 2025 NCRID conference will occur virtually, and will be hosted on Zoom. We strongly encourage participants to ensure you are familiar with general basics of Zoom and its features, such as use of the chat; adjustment of your own mic, speakers, and camera; adjustment of your view between Gallery and Speaker view; etc. We also strongly encourage you to plan to join workshops on a laptop or desktop computer, not a tablet or smartphone. We also recommend downloading and using the free Zoom application, not joining from a web browser. We cannot offer refunds due to technical errors or limitations on the part of the participants.
