We ask that you do your best to adhere to the following virtual meeting etiquette  guidelines:

• please come on time, there will be a 5 minute grace period incase of technical issues. (please download the meeting software/app beforehand as this may need more time to download and set-up.

• We plan to project all virtual attendees via a large screen, so please come presentable in the same way that you would for an in-person meeting.

• We will have a 'camera on' policy, so please engage in the meeting and do not be a distraction to other attendees.

• We expect virtual attendees to be respectful and listening to other participants that are talking, so please stay muted until you would like to speak.

• Do not leave the room during the meeting unless absolutely necessary, stay seated and stay present. we ask this of all attendees regardless of if they are virtual or in-person. 

• A member of the media team will be monitoring virtual attendees, please do not abuse this option, as members will be making notes for future meetings.
