To submit a ticket to the CTO Help-desk e-mail to secs@oakland.edu. This will let us know that you would like a ticket created and we will add you into the queue. This will in turn send you a ticket allowing you to view its status. The tickets will be handled based on the order received and priority level. The priority level is set by the System Administrator based on a variety of factors one of which is number of individuals impacted by the ticket being completed. The tickets priority may be changed if a similar request by another party is submitted.
Important note: The educational needs of SECS students always comes first.
