[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_text_separator title=”Accessing Tech Help” i_icon_fontawesome=”fa fa-magic” i_color=”black” add_icon=”true”][vc_column_text]Each of the people working with technology have different areas of responsibility, so it may not be the most efficient use of time for them to try to fix a classroom technology issue. Filling out the problem form ensures that the right person will be sent for the right jobs.
Procedure for accessing tech support:
- Go to https://www3.srsd119.ca/itrequest/authenticate.php
- Put in your username and password
- Fill out the form as completely as possible
- One of the techs will be assigned to your problem and will fix it as soon as they are able
Please do not:
- Email or call any tech directly, except as a follow-up to having the problem solved or when requested
- Call the library staff – they do not know when a tech will be available to help
- Stop a tech in the hallway. The more problem report forms are filled out, the more resources we are assigned for tech support
Please do:
- Try to fix the problem yourself – even shutting down and rebooting works in a surprising number of cases
- Try switching browsers if it is a website access issue. You will find PortableChrome under Start –> All Programs
- Test classroom tech use in advance so that there is no last minute panic when it doesn’t work as expected
