Community directory

We may not be in-person this year, but that doesn't mean you can't chat with other attendees!

Set your chat availability to 'on' to appear in the Community directory -- a networking hub where you and other Converge attendees can chat 1:1 or form group chats to connect about such things as Tanium use-cases, common interests, and session content.

Ways to engage

React live with custom Converge emojis during keynotes and breakouts. You may earn Endpoint Challenge points for engaging.

Surveys

We value your feedback! Let us know what you think about each session by completing the short survey included at the end of each session.

Session surveys will also be available on the 'My surveys' tab of the 'My agenda' page throughout the event.

Viewing sessions

My schedule

To view sessions that you've added to your agenda during registration, navigate to the 'My schedule' tab on the 'My agenda' page.

If you've signed up for any sessions where pre-registration was required (CTF, Hands-On Labs, Focus Groups, UX Sessions), this tab is where you'll access them.

The 'View Session' button will drop you straight into the session when clicked during its scheduled times.

Converge agenda

The keynotes and breakouts that don't require pre-registration will be accessible on the 'Converge agenda' tab of the 'My agenda' page.
 

To join these sessions, simply click the 'View Session' button during the session's scheduled time.

Capture the Flag & Hands-On Labs

CTF and Labs will all kick-off in a hosted Zoom room. You will not be required to turn on your microphone or camera.

You will receive the Lab Environment access details for CTF and the Hands-On Labs you've been confirmed for in the Zoom room and continue into the external Lab environments from there.

Lab Zoom rooms will remain open for the entirety of the lab in case you need to pop back into it with any questions or comments for the lab trainer and support staff.

Note: Be sure to review the connectivity requirements and complete the lab access test prior to your scheduled labs to avoid any delay in accessing the environments.
