The Timer is responsible for ensuring the smooth flow and timely adherence of the entire session schedule.

Pre-Convention Preparation

• Timer Setup & Testing: You must set up and conduct a test run of the Zoom Timer App at least one week prior to the convention start date (February 20, 2026, or earlier).
  • Note: Ensure you are familiar with the “How to set up Zoom Timer”.

Live Session Responsibilities

• Time Management Goal: The primary goal is to keep the entire session within its allotted time frame as dictated by the convention schedule.
• Active Timing: Utilize the Zoom Timer App to accurately time the following components:
  • Speakers’ Presentations: Monitor the main speaker’s total presentation time.
  • Participant Shares: Precisely time each participant’s sharing turn to ensure fairness and adherence to limits.
• Signaling: Be prepared to use the timer or visual signals to prompt the speaker or sharers when their allotted time is nearing its end.
