How to Get Started
To use Zoom, you’ll need to install an app on your computer or mobile device, and login via single sign-on (SSO) using your Selkirk College login. We recommend doing this before you host or join your first meeting.

Click "Sign in with SSO".

When prompted for a domain, type: "selkirk"

The Selkirk login will display. Enter your Selkirk login information (example: staff username: jdoe@selkirk.ca or if you are a student johndoe@edu.selkirk.ca) and click "Next" and then enter your Selkirk password.
