How to schedule Zoom meetings on behalf of others
If you are scheduling teaching sessions on behalf of others, it's now possible to do this using the Zoom Meetings Manager within LSE Moodle. Use the guide below if you need to schedule non-teaching meetings on behalf of others using the Zoom desktop client or web portal.
Introduction
By using scheduling privilege in Zoom, it is possible for LSE staff to schedule one-off or recurrent meetings on behalf of colleagues using the Zoom desktop client or Zoom on the web. If you are scheduling a meeting but do not intend to attend, this method should be used instead of assigning colleagues as an alternative host. There is a risk of meeting clashes if you schedule too many meetings with colleagues as alternative hosts.
How to schedule Zoom meetings on behalf of others
If staff member A wishes to schedule meetings for staff member B, then staff member B will need to first give staff member A permission to do so by assigning them scheduling privilege in Zoom. This only needs to be done once.
Once staff member B has confirmed that scheduling privileges have been assigned, staff member A will be able to schedule one-off or recurrent meetings on behalf of colleague B by choosing their name on the “Schedule for” drop down menu when scheduling a meeting.
Once you have set all of the other meeting options, just click save and your colleague will now be the Zoom host for this meeting.
