TSC Work Requests

The CEPS Technical Service Center (TSC) has  an online work request system for all faculty and staff. This system will better enable the TSC to track and assign tasks to the TSC team members as well as collect valuable data related to the work load for future planning. All work requests must be associated with a faculty or staff member. Upon completion of the online Work Request Form, you will receive confirmation that it has been submitted. It is the goal of the TSC to contact you within 48 hours providing you with a response to your request. If you need immediate assistance, please contact Kevan Carpenter, CEPS TSC Director, at (603) 862-2343.
