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. Share the video file, title, and description
Next, send everything to a staff member or contractor who has access to OEC’s YouTube channel. 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)
What’s next?
That’s all there is to it. Once the staff member or contractor uploads the video, they’ll share the video link with you.
