Virtual Option for RAC-G General Assembly

RAC-G now provides a virtual option for our General Assemblies through Microsoft Teams.


  • All virtual participants must log into the meeting with their full name, the facility represented, and their position in the chat to obtain credit for participation. If you are a phone-in participant, most phones will register as “Caller 01” or “Caller 02”, so we require phone-in participants to change their call-in ID to their full name to receive credit for attendance. If a caller is unidentified, we will not be able to give them credit for participation.
  • During the General Assembly, the virtual attendees will be given a sign-in option through a QR code and/or weblink to fill out for attendance credit, just as if signing in when in person. Only one or the other (QR code or link) must be filled out, along with identification in the chat area of the meeting (if applicable). The method will depend on your device – pc or phone, etc.
  • Please note: For the virtual aspect of the meeting, the QR code and the signature link will not be presented at the beginning of the General Assembly. To ensure that virtual attendees remain present throughout the meeting (to receive credit for attendance), the signature link and QR codes will be presented at some undetermined point during the meeting to those individuals who attend virtually. This helps eliminate attendees logging on for credit but not participating in the meetings.
  • In the near future, as details are worked out and set within the RAC, any attendee on the virtual platform may be required to have a visual representation to affirm their attendance during the meetings through means of a webcam or other video device.

  • Details of the meeting links are provided in the calendar invites sent to membership, along with the agenda.
