ISS offers three types of teleconference services:

Individual Conference Calling
Meet Me Conference for groups of six or less.
For groups larger than six people, please contact Console Traffic Operations at 202-994-0700 for assistance.

Individual Conference Calls

If you have a multi-line telephone set, you can add an additional person to a call by following the directions below:

Press "Conf." (This puts the original party on hold and selects an open line.)
Dial the number of the third party.
Press "Conf" again to add the original party, and all three people are joined.

To add a call that is already on hold to another call you are connected to:

Press "Conf."
Press the call appearance button of the call on hold.
Press "Conf" again.

To drop the last person added to a conference, press the "Drop" button.

Meet Me Conferencing

Meet Me Conferencing allows users to improve collaboration by easily setting up conference calls. After making a reservation, you will receive a dial-in number and secure password. Meet Me Conferencing offers an efficient six-party conferencing capability.

Benefits:

Enjoy substantially reduced costs over traditional third party conference services with GW's one-time flat fee per business day. This allows you to pay by the conference call, not by the length of the call or by the number of attendees. GW's Meet Me Conferencing also has no set up fee like many outside conference service providers.
Handle all conference calls from set-up to conclusion quickly and efficiently.
Use one GW dial-in number for up to six participants from anywhere on campus or across the world.
Save on departmental long distance costs since off-site callers call you instead of you having to call them and incur the long-distance fees.
Set up is quick and simple! Give us 24 hours notice and ISS will make sure your conference call is set up and ready to go for all your business and academic needs.
