Being able to meet, teach, and communicate remotely and virtually is not only necessary but essential in the technological world that we live in today. Just as an LMS helps you move the classroom online, Virtual Classrooms are a great way to implement vILT (Virtual Instructor-Led Training) and can also be integrated to expand your Tovuti Events.
Virtual Classrooms are enabled to support up to 24 breakout sessions during the meeting.
Go to Learning > Click Virtual Classroom > Click New
In the Details tab, give this Classroom a Title.
For Meeting Type, select the platform that hosts the Virtual Classroom. Available types include:
- Tovuti Meeting
- Zoom Meeting
- Webex Meeting
- GoTo Meeting
- Google Hangout Meeting
- Join.Me Meeting
Select the associated Domain. The default Domain is the brand originally created with the LMS. Associating a domain impacts event reminder notifications.
Advanced Settings will populate with configurations depending on the Meeting Type chosen in the Details tab. Toggle "Use Custom" for the Settings field to customize how users will interact with this classroom.
If Tovuti Meeting is selected as the meeting type in the previous tab, settings for this meeting type will appear. Tovuti Meeting is a great option for small class sizes and no integration or API work is required.
In the Attendee Access tab, set which of your students will have access to this virtual classroom. You can grant access to individual Users, User Groups, or by Access Level.
Upon completing the session of this virtual classroom, attendance records will appear in Attendance and a recording will show in Recordings.
Click Save and Close.
From the list view of Virtual Classrooms, you will now see the newly created classroom with a sharable Guest Link. Click Copy to provide access to the classroom for anyone who has not registered beforehand.
Keep in mind that those who attend with this Guest Link (including the host) will be counted anonymous and attendance will not be associated with a logged-in user.
Zoom Virtual Classroom Integration
Tovuti offers native integration with Zoom. To configure your Virtual Classroom with Zoom, complete the following steps:
For the Meeting Type field, select "Zoom Meeting."
- If "Copy and Paste Zoom Link" is toggled, provide the link from the organization's Zoom account or a personal link

Select the associated Domain. The default Domain is the brand originally created with the LMS. Associating a domain impacts event reminder notifications.
