Are you ready for one-stop shop, reliable C&IT Support?
The C&IT Help Desk is Wayne State's campus technology control center for all your tech support needs. As a WSU student, we frequently use a variety of Wayne State's IT systems, like email, Blackboard, or Academica. It can be very frustrating when encountering IT type issues when trying to finish an important project, quiz or exam. The C&IT Help Desk also specializes in assistance from connecting a phone to Wi-Fi to fixing a broken computer. The best part is this support in accessing and using Wayne State systems is always available free of charge to WSU students.

Now, let me tell you about my personal experience with the C&IT Help Desk. While trying to complete a exam for ISM 7505, I encountered an issue on Blackboard that prevented me from completing my exam. I attempted to resolve the issue myself by restarting my browser and eventually restarting my computer. After several attempts, I decided to call the Help Desk. With a quick search on WSU's site, I was able to find the C&IT Home Page. I called the (313) 577-HELP hotline and within minutes the representative created a support ticket and ensured my issue would be handled appropriately. After the support ticket was created, I decided to contact Professor John Heinrichs to explain why I could not complete my exam and what steps I took to help resolve the issue. He was very pleased with my course of action and broadcasted the issue to the entire class. With his help, I decided to write about my experience and he recommended I read the basic E-S-QUAL scale research paper which details the four important dimensions of electronic service quality.

Here are my reasons why C&IT succeed in providing great tech support:
- Efficiency - I was very pleased with the ease and speed of accessing and submitting a ticket.
- Fulfillment - The C&IT representative sent a status update link directly to my email which provided promises about resolution timing.
- System Availability - All of the links within the C&IT were fully functional which gave me piece of mind that the correct technical support team will be there to resolve all of my needs.
- Privacy - Since the C&IT support page is embedded within the WSU domain, I felt the site is safe and protects customer information.
