Hosting, attending and presenting
There are three main roles during remote meetings: hosting, attending and presenting.
- The host is the person who ‘owns’ the meeting: who sets it up, controls the attendees’ ability to speak or participate, and ends the meeting. They will also decide on the platform being used for the meeting.
- The attendees include everyone attending the meeting. They may watch and listen, or actively participate.
- Presenters are those making a presentation at a meeting.
