Office of Digital Solutions - Extension IT helpdesk support

The Office of Digital Solutions contributes to the Division of Extension’s success in the digital age by collaborating, leading, and coaching around technology and data to enhance educational programs, operational efficiency, and overall impact. 

Looking for Educational Technology Support (ETS)? That's us! We've grown and have a new name. 

There are several ways to reach us for help and staying informed of new tech and trainings.

IT helpdesk support

All initial support requests will go through the UW Madison DoIT Helpdesk. If the DoIT Helpdesk cannot answer the question, they will escalate it to the ETS Incident Resolution Team. The DoIT Helpdesk has staff available from 7 am to 11 pm, 7 days a week, and can be reached in the following ways:

Website: https://it.wisc.edu/help/

Phone: 608.264.4357

Email: helpdesk@extension.wisc.edu

Live Chat: https://helpdesk.wisc.edu/chat

When contacting the DoIT Helpdesk, it is important that you identify yourself as being in the Division of Extension. This is vital as it assists the DoIT Helpdesk to route your issue to the Division of Extension Educational Technology Support team as needed.

Need Help with Your Computer?

If your computer is managed by your county IT staff, please contact your local county IT support.

If your computer name starts with EXT-, your computer is managed by DoIT Desktop Support. Please contact them at the Contract Partner support options, or email support@doit.wisc.edu.

For all other computer requests, please email helpdesk@extension.wisc.edu.

Canvas Concerns? Qualtrics Questions? WordPress Woes?

Office Hours occur Monday through Friday at 9 -9:30 a.m.
