Adobe Connect Central home page

Adobe Connect Central is the web-based portal that allows all the registered users to create and manage their Adobe Connect sessions. The portal also allows Account Administrators to administer the account.

Adobe Connect Central is re-created in HTML so Flash is not required to access the home page. Get a glance at upcoming events, training, calendar and recently opened or used meeting rooms from the home page for ease of use. You can access your calendar, existing meetings, recordings, trainings, training catalogs and join meetings directly from these widgets available on home page. Through these widgets, analyze the number of attendees for each session, enrolled members for training sessions and invitees for upcoming events. For these listed Adobe Connect sessions, you can take appropriate actions like launch a meeting room, edit a session or view recordings. 

You can access the portal at:

• Hosted Adobe service: https://[accountname].adobeconnect.com
  
• Licensed users can access it on the domain provided by their administrators.
  

You can use the Create button to quickly achieve one of the following:

• Create a Calendar
• Upload Content
• Create a Virtual Classroom, a Course, or a Curriculum
• Create an Event

You see only the options that are available for your role and that you have permission to create. Contact your administrator for the other options.
