To use UNR Zoom accounts
 
Academic Faculty
UNR Academic faculty should access zoom through Canvas. If you sign into Canvas you should have a new class listed in your 'Courses' that reviews how to access Zoom through Canvas, remote learning best practices, and other remote tools and tips.
 
Administrative Faculty
Admin faculty needing zoom access, not related to UNR classes can access zoom directly and login through 'SSO' using their NetID's. These accounts should be used for meetings, for Webinars its prefered to use the CASAT accounts with the Webinar 'add-on'. Instructions below:

Please note you have to download the desktop app for these instructions, they will not work to directly login on the website.

Communication
MS Teams should be on everybody's computers who works on campus, this is the best tool to use to contact non-casat UNR staff. This is the tool that replaced Skype, and is officially supported by UNR.
 
Google Hangouts can be used to start 1on1 and group chats and can also host video chats. Should be used to contact with other CASAT staff. This is the chat that you can access right from your @casat.org emails.
Web Storage
 
Box
Box is the officially supported remote storage option from UNR. You can get access using your UNR NetID by following the directions here:
 
Google Team Drives
If you would prefer to use your @casat.org email to access files you can use Google's Team Drive service. Team Drives work a bit differently than just using the google drive. Team Drives are storage spaces than can be set to different levels of sharing by user. Most importantly these drives will continue to exist even after your email account is gone. If you need a new Team Drive, or access to an existing one let me know and I can help you out.
