How to start using Zoom through USD

I was wondering if there is a cheat sheet or training doc on this new Zoom tool

Do you have a document on how to use Zoom for conference calls?

Is Zoom Webinar included in our license

Needs the USD zoom access but his name can't be seen on the list

 Is there a way to set up a Zoom account through the University so we don't have to pay for it individually?
