Frequently Asked Questions

鈻   Do I have to use this software?
In order to request a facility on campus, you need to use EMS. We believe that EMS simplifies the process for requesting facilities.
鈻   Is EMS the system for academic scheduling?
EMS is not the system for academic scheduling. The purpose of EMS is to create better coordination of University events, provide greater transparency to our Campus Police force about University events, and enhance the 麻豆相关报道brand to 麻豆相关报道and the external community.  The academic schedule does get input into EMS on a regular basis to avoid potential double booking conflicts.
鈻   What is Administrator training and why is it mandatory? 
Administrator training is primarily for building managers who have complex/intricate building requirements requiring software customization. To receive a list of our administrators, please click on the Events Management Administrators link to the left. This training is mandatory because this step is critical to ensuring the system fully meets the University鈥檚 needs.
