Panelist Quick Start Guide (Classic)
Panelists can present, share their webcams, speak, answer questions assigned to them and be promoted (by organizer request). This role requires an invitation from the webinar organizer.
As soon as you join the webinar, you'll see a panelist-specific Control Panel within the webinar that shows the "Panelist" description next to your name in the Attendee list. Once you're familiar with the Control Panel, you'll be able to use the tools specific to the Panelist.
Chat with others
As a panelist, you can chat with organizers and other panelists to help manage the webinar and presentation flow.
- From the Attendee pane, right-click on the name of an organizer or panelist, and then select Send Chat Message.
Result: This will change the "To" field in the Chat pane. You can also select the desired recipient(s) from the "Send Chat To" drop-down menu in the Chat pane directly.
- Enter the desired chat message, and then select Send.
