Events can be useful as a part of the recruitment process for your program, as well as student engagement throughout the school year. As you begin to think through planning your event, please know that UMC has a wealth of resources that can make the process simpler. Also, if your program works in collaboration with the Enrollment Management Office, know that they can be a helpful resource in planning and executing your event.
If you have an event to promote or news to share, please submit your event to be posted on the SOM website/calendar. Submissions received via this form will be shared on the SOM website, in the newsletter, and/or via digital signage.
Slate Events
If you have an event that you would like to share in Slate, you can include a link to the Zoom meeting or webinar within your Slate communication.
Zoom Meetings vs. Zoom Webinars
Zoom meetings are used to communicate face to face with individuals or small groups. Typically, these are used for one-on-one meetings with prospective students or for meetings amongst CWRU employees. This is the default for Zoom when you go to schedule a meeting within the portal or add video conferencing to a calendar invite.
Zoom webinars are used when presenting to a large group of individuals. To schedule webinars, you must first be granted webinar access by the university. To request access, please email help@case.edu. Zoom Webinar allows you to choose if attendees can have their camera on, respond using their microphone, or respond only by using the Q/A chat feature. Zoom Webinar is ideal for program specific webinars and large-scale virtual presentations.
