OSCPA strides to make our virtual events user and system friendly. We understand every attendee has a different technology setup. To ensure you can access our OSCPA-sponsored and/or Partnered events, read this Pre-Event Checklist article to ensure your technology is compatible.

Test Your Technology System


Log Into MyOSCPA Early

We recommend signing into your MyOSCPA account 10-15 minutes before the event starts. If you are resetting your password or having trouble logging in, early arrival allows a buffer to receive a password reset and sign in before the session starts.


Check Version of Zoom

Zoom is the Ohio Society of CPAs' standard webinar platform. It requires the desktop client to stay up-to-date with the latest version. If you haven't updated your Zoom application, do so before the event.


Check Your Technology Hardware

The majority of OSCPA-sponsored events only require speakers for audio. Occasional attendees will be able to utilize the microphone and/or webcam, but this hardware is not required equipment to attend an event. To test your audio before the event please read this article from Zoom: Testing audio before Zoom Meetings


Mobile Devices

Our virtual conference platform is compatible with mobile devices. Below are the minimum system requirements. Once both applications below are installed, open the Chrome browser and navigate to MYOSCPA to sign in. After signing in click on “My Learning Center” then locate the conference and click on Attend/Launch.


IOS / Android Mobile Device Requirements (iPhone, iPad, & Android based tablets):

  1. Google Chrome web browser installed
