Upgraded SupportMe Overview

The SupportMe self-service portal was upgraded on Friday 5th April, the following help page explains how to use the new portal. 
 

SupportMe is a self-service portal for raising support calls e.g. IT Support calls, reporting lost property, requesting library books to be sent cross-campus for you etc.

OneDrive is used to store files, folders, and photos in the 'cloud' (Online) so you can access them easily on multiple devices and share them with colleagues, or with people outside the university.

It is important that the University has an accurate record of attendance. The expectation is that students attend all timetabled sessions for each module.

Each department has a student attendance management coordinator if you have any questions
