We’re ready to go! Are you?

Access for all sessions begins at 9am Mon Feb 22 here:  https://go.rutgers.edu/bs9ohbuk

Once you’ve logged in you will be directed to ‘breakout rooms’ for each of the morning sessions, but while you’re waiting hear a few welcoming remarks from our Interim Executive Dean Dr. Laura Lawson, Director of Rutgers Cooperative Extension Brian Schilling, NJDA Secretary Douglas Fisher, and Vegetable Growers Association president John Banscher. The program sessions will begin at 9:15am.

Don’t worry if you miss where to go because you’ll be able to find every link to every session at vganj.com/schedule. Click on the black ‘schedule’ button, then on the session you’d like to join, and it will take you to the page with the Zoom link for that session. NOTE that the morning sessions are all through the same link, so if you don’t see the link next to the session, scroll to the top of the page to find it for that morning. Afternoon sessions will each have a unique Zoom link that will be seen directly next to the agenda for that session.

If you’re new to Zoom meetings, or haven’t been on one for a few months, you might need to download the newest version or update the app on your mobile device. You will be prompted to do so if you try to enter one of the rooms without it, and it should be a simple click or two to complete the update. Easy enough if you wait until you first try to get in, but we strongly recommend that you click on the link above to see if it works now rather than waiting to find out at the last minute Monday morning.

Also, if you’re new to Zoom, our IT support team at Rutgers Continuing Education Center at Atrium recommends checking out one or more of these online tutorials so you can get familiar with using it.
