Streaming Platform
Your school may already be live-streaming events like sports or concerts, in which case your current technology platform can likely be utilized for your Virtual Commencement.
If you’re not currently live-streaming events, there are several low/no-cost platforms suitable for your Virtual Commencement needs, depending on your program length, audience size, and desired production features.
All of the technology platforms curated by Jostens are FREE for your virtual audience to utilize. Some require application downloads or social media “following”, but all are free of charge to those viewing your Virtual Commencement.
