Tech Services and Remote Learning Resources

Technical Support on Campus

We will be providing some on-campus classroom support where necessary, alongside our support of remote classes. The Service Desk is available on campus (in-person) and online to support to students. 

We have been working to update and enhance the capacity of our bandwidth on both campuses and will continue to have technicians on-campus to address any wi-fi issues that may emerge. If you experience any wi-fi issues, please contact the service desk.

Our on-campus computer labs remain closed but we have made our labs accessible remotely.

The laptop loaner program will continue on Sept. 8 on a first come, first served basis.
