Videoconferencing is a communications technology that integrates video and voice to connect remote users with each other as if they were in the same room. Users see and hear each other in real-time, allowing natural conversations to take place.
Videoconferencing allows users to save time and money on travelling and accommodation costs by bringing people face-to-face virtually.
You can use videoconferencing for:
- teaching
- oral exams
- training
- meetings
- interviews
