Join a Zoom Meeting from a Brightspace Course, 

The Webinar Add-on is for 500 attendees and is for the entire campus community. Use of the webinar feature is based on first come, first serve basis. 

There are multiple roles available for a webinar: host, alternative host, panelist, and attendees. The role that you have in the webinar will be designated by the host.

The host of the webinar is the user who the webinar is scheduled under. They have full permissions to manage the webinar, panelists, and attendees. There can only be one host of a webinar. The host can do things like stop and start the webinar, mute panelists, stop panelists' video, remove attendees from the webinar, and more.

Alternative host(s) share many of the controls that hosts have, allowing the alternative host to manage the administrative side of the webinar, such as managing attendees or starting/stopping the recording. An alternative host can start a webinar. 

Panelists are full participants in a webinar. They can view and send video, screen share, annotate, etc. You must be assigned panelist permissions by the webinar host. The host can also disable some features for panelists, including starting video, sharing your screen, and recording. 

Attendees are view-only participants who can be unmuted if the alternative host chooses. Their view of the webinar is controlled by the host/alternative hosts. They can interact with the host/alternative host and the panelists through the Q&A and the chat.
