Enable Breakout Rooms for Participants
You can make your large meetings more efficient and productive by enabling participants to be split into multiple breakout rooms. A breakout room is a separate session that includes a subset of the participants from the main meeting. By splitting a large meeting into several breakout rooms, you make it easier for participants to talk and share information. Breakout rooms are disabled by default, so to use them you must enable a setting in your Zoom profile. To learn how to create breakout rooms, see the next section, “Create Breakout Rooms.”

Create Breakout Rooms
In a large meeting, you can enhance communication and sharing by creating breakout rooms. Each breakout room contains a subset of the participants from the main meeting. Breakout room participants get the same audio, video, and screen sharing features as they do in the main meeting, but the smaller number of participants in the breakout room makes for easier communication. You can create up to 50 breakout rooms. You can have Zoom automatically assign participants to each room, assign the participants yourself, or allow participants to choose rooms themselves. See the previous section, “Enable Breakout Rooms for Participants,” to activate this feature.
