Learn how to join a Cisco Webex Meeting, Event or Training session hosted by Monash Health.
Cisco Webex is Monash Health’s preferred video conferencing software. Webex can be used to schedule and join online meetings, events and training.
You can join a meeting, event or training from your computer or smartphone. First, you’ll need to find the Webex details, which could have been sent to you as an email invitation or the details might appear featured in one of our upcoming events. Every meeting, event or training will also have a unique ID number and password if a URL link has not been shared with you.
If you’ve received an automated email invitation, it’s as easy as clicking Join to start your Webex Meeting.
Please contact the Webex organiser if you are missing the details to join your meeting, event or training session.
The Cisco Webex experience is similar between meetings, events and training sessions, but each have different functions:
The guides below provide step-by-step instructions for joining a Webex Meeting, Event or Training Session.

Allow yourself time to download and test the Webex app before joining your meeting, event or training.
When joining Webex, you can also follow the links in your web browser to ‘install Webex’ or ‘run a temporary application’ for the best experience.
Please ensure you follow the instructions to install Webex Meetings and not Webex Teams.
If you’re unable to download the software to your computer, you can also join a Webex Meeting, Event or Training session in the latest web browsers such as Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge and Safari.

Take a few moments to learn how to switch your camera and microphone on (or off), how to customise your screen layout so that you can see more people, and how to share content, like a Microsoft PowerPoint or Apple Keynote presentation.
The Webex app gives you a moment to check how you look and sound when you first join. Throughout your meeting, event or training, make sure your microphone is not muted when you are trying to talk.

When trying to collaborate with groups or hear from large panels, you may wish to re-arrange your windows. Options like the Grid View allow you to see several people on-screen at once, rather than just one person at a time.

It’s easy to share content like a presentation or document. Before sharing content, don’t forget to close down any background applications, because unused software can slow down Webex and you might accidentally share the wrong window.

If you don’t have the correct details to join your meeting, event or training session (for example, you might be missing the password), please contact the Webex organiser.
During a Webex, if you’re having trouble hearing or being heard during a meeting, try adjusting the volume. You should also check that mute is switched off and the volume is turned up on your computer or smartphone.
