OEC doesn’t host videos on its website. Instead, we post them on the agency’s YouTube channel.
Once they’re uploaded to YouTube, we can post a link to the video on our website. Or, we can embed the video on a page, so people can watch without leaving the website.
OEC’s process for sharing videos
1. Create or download the video
- Download the video file from Teams or Zoom after you’ve recorded a meeting
- Create a video in PPT or other software
2. Write the title and description
YouTube requires videos to have a title and description. Make them short and clear so people know exactly what they’re going to see.
Sample title: Upload Your Elevate Program Plan to the Registry
Sample description: Looking for information on how to upload your OEC Elevate Program plan to the Registry? This tutorial video provides step-by-step instructions for providers like you to put your Elevate Program Plan on the OEC Registry in just a few minutes.
3. Upload the video to YouTube and add a link on the website
If you have access to OEC’s YouTube account
Uploading to YouTube is straightforward. Watch this video to learn how to do it.
If you don’t have access to OEC’s YouTube account
Send everything to a staff member or contractor who does have access. Check with the website advisory team if you’re not sure who to contact.
Make sure to include:
- A link to the video file
- The title
- The description
- Any specific pages on the website you want the video to appear on
- Whether the video needs any simple edits (for example, cutting a few minutes of silence at the start of a meeting)
Once the staff member or contractor uploads the video, they’ll share the video link with you.
