What does an fTC do?
Your faculty technology coordinator is trained to assist you with a variety of University-supported hardware and software, as well as assist with some technology-related administrative duties like booking rooms, assisting with communication between University service departments, and is your go-to liaison for any questions about classroom technology. Classroom screen not turning on? Is the printer jammed? Do you need help designing your Brightspace page? Does your department website need updating? Contact your FTC!
