By creating virtual rooms in CAE LearningSpace, you can organize virtual events:

  • assigned SPs will be allowed to start hosting the scenario they are portraying;
  • scheduled learners will be allowed to access the virtual scenario according to their timeslot assignments.

Note
titleZoom Scheduled Meetings

When adding a personal Zoom user account as a virtual room to CAE LearningSpace, and assigning that room to a virtual event, make sure that no one is able to host meetings straight from the Zoom user account while the virtual event is in progress. 

Virtual events launched by the SP could be unexpectedly cut off by another user logging into the same Zoom account from another device and launching a meeting from Zoom's interface. As a general rule, the user who starts the latest meeting from the Zoom interface has the ability to end the other ongoing session.

If trying to launch the most recent meeting session, SPs could also be presented with the following alert when launching their virtual encounter in CAE LearningSpace:

To prevent CAE LearningSpace virtual sessions from ending abruptly, make sure no one is logged into or using the Zoom user account if it is assigned to a virtual event in CAE LearningSpace while the virtual event is running.

(info) Check the dates of scheduled virtual events in Advanced Scheduling or the Calendar module.

Set up an event, schedule your learners, and assign SPs to your event as you would usually do, but please keep in mind that the virtual room you add to the event will not function as an authorized workstation and there are some further setting recommendations you need to follow in order to conduct your OSCE exam smoothly.
