If you plan on hosting your own classes, you must setup a Link Blue account.

Once you have set up the Link Blue account, go to the University of Kentucky's Zoom website, uky.zoom.us to sign into the Zoom Manager for creating, managing, and starting your Zoom meetings. Logging in from Zoom's website will not work.
