Tech Desk & Support Options

Body

You can get support for your technology requests/issues through a variety of ways.

 

What to Include in Your Request:

The ingredients for quick problem resolution are when you are prepared to provide extensive detail and information regarding: a description of the problem, the date and time it occurred, any error messages you may be seeing, the location this occurred (on campus, off campus, a specific building, etc.), screenshots (if possible).

We also suggest keeping track of your ticket number so that we can quickly check the progress and status of your support request.
 

Chat and Remote Support

ITS uses BeyondTrust (formerly "Bomgar") to provide chat and remote support assistance for faculty, staff, and students.

  1. Go to our Remote Support portal
  2. Use the "Issue Submission" section to initiate a support session. If you are unable to connect with a support representative, please call the Tech Desk for assistance.
