Classroom Technology Immediate Assistance

Get in-person support for tech issues in select classrooms. 

Need help connecting to technology in a classroom? Our Immediate Assistance pilot program is currently running . We support and troubleshoot:  

  • Room monitors, projectors, and microphones/audio equipment 
  • Connection issues (WiFi or cable issues) 
  • Common application issues in PowerPoint, Zoom, and more 

Supported Rooms

In collaboration with the Medical School, HITS identified high-traffic rooms to receive technology support as the service expands. All supported rooms contain clear signage by the door and near the room equipment or podium.

About the Immediate Assistance Service

Immediate Assistance is a new support service in select classrooms to better serve the medical education community. IT professionals will provide in-person support to troubleshoot classroom connections, device issues, and audio/visual equipment issues. Our goal is to minimize IT disruptions to learning and events in highly utilized medical school spaces. 

As we collect more data and feedback from this service, it will evolve and grow over time as we scale-up to serve more medical education spaces and provide new ways to request assistance.
