How to Upgrade My Zoom Account to Zoom Pro

Introduction

Faculty members, Graduate Teaching Assistants, and Staff members are eligible to upgrade their Zoom Basic account to a Zoom Pro account. This will give you unlimited time during your meetings and allow up to 300 participants. In comparison, Basic accounts are limited to 40 minutes per session with a maximum of 100 participants.

3. Click Sign in with SSO
   
4. In the Your company domain field, enter uah-uasystem.zoom.us
   
5. In the browser that opens, sign in using the same credentials you use to sign in to myUAH and Canvas . Note that if you are already signed into SSO in your browser, you'll be signed in automatically and can skip this step
   
6. Once you are signed in, you'll see a Zoom page titled Sign in with SSO. Click Launch Zoom
   
7. If prompted to Open Zoom Meetings? click Open Zoom Meetings
   
8. Zoom will open and you'll be signed in
