Consulting Appointments

Drop-in and telephone consulting and training are available whenever the Consulting is open.

To ensure that the consultant and hardware you need are available, we recommend that you schedule an appointment in advance. Workstations that are not reserved in advance are available on a first-come, first-served basis (maximum of two hours per session). Calling in advance also allows us to make sure that the staff member on duty will be prepared to help you with your particular questions.

You can make an appointment by calling 346-1942 during scheduled drop-in hours.

You can also call to make an appointment for an office visit. We will attempt to schedule a visit to your office within two weeks to provide you the training you need.
