There are several options for facilitating a group call.  You are welcome to utilize one that works well for you and for your coachees.  Please try to find something that fits everyone. Here are a few options that  work well:

• Google HangoutsChat: Since Reliant uses Google to host email services, every Reliant email is a Google-connected account.  If you set up a video call, you can invite each person into it. This can be good for creating a more intimate feel and increases accountability, as you’ll be able to see one another. Here is how to set up a hangoutchat with other people.

• Zoom Video:  another great accessible video tool that can be used by anyone for free.  The main limitation is that you can only host a 40-minute meeting before you would need a second one. 

  • Pros: With a free account, it is easy to make and send meetings with the link embedded

  • Cons: Only 40 minutes before you would need to begin a new meeting
    • By being creative, you could create two meetings 40 minutes apart. Once one ends, everyone would need to click the new link and pick back up where you left off
• Skype: One of the more familiar online video tools. 
  • Pros: free, no time limitation
  • Con: Everyone would need to have an account and add people as friends in order to use this successfully. Can be done but would require upfront prep.
