It is very important to install updates in a timely fashion.  Follow these steps to proactively install any pending updates:

• Launch Software Center from your desktop by clicking on the icon
• Click on Updates on the left-side menu
• Select any pending updates to install
• Following instructions and restart as prompted

At some point, the system will force updates.  The Technology Department will rarely push out a mandatory update unless it is to patch a critical security risk. 

Login to Skyward Family Access, click on the  "Update Family Information” tile.

When asking for technology equipment:

• Please be as descriptive as possible of what you would like to purchase. (include links if applicable) 
• If your items are approved by your campus/department, we will request a quote from our current vendors and send it to you. Once you receive the quote, please give it to your bookkeeper or administrative staff at our campus/department.
• Items will be ordered once a PO is created by the technology services department. If you enter a PO yourself, you MUST submit a copy of the PO to the technology service department. Otherwise, you will run the risk of your item(s) not getting delivered to your campus in a timely matter.
