Sign in to your Chico State Zoom Account Using SSO

Prerequisites

Overview 

Your Chico State Zoom account provides specific privileges that a free account does not. These include: hosting meetings with unlimited meeting time, recording to the cloud, but most importantly, accessing meetings that "require authentication." Tip: Anytime you are prompted to sign in to Zoom at Chico, always choose SSO as the method for authentication. Do not use your email.
