Sometimes we need to have a meeting with multiple staff members at different locations or even with people outside the CPCS organization. There are many technical solutions for this (Vsee for video conferencing, Skype, Google chat, Google + group chat, etc.), but the simplest, easiest, lowest technology approach is a traditional teleconference. Teleconferences are great because everyone knows how to use a phone, and it requires no installation of software on a device, no training, etc.
There are a number of free teleconferencing services that can be used. The service I use is freeconferencecalling.com, because it simply works. A service used by other people at CPCS is www.freeconference.com, which I find a tad more complex, but works.
A caveat on all these services is that they don’t provide toll-free dialing or local phone numbers.
