The LMS Help Desk serves as the central point of contact for users who require assistance with technical, access, operational, or learning-related issues. It ensures that problems are logged, tracked, prioritised, and resolved in a structured manner. The Help Desk also coordinates with technical teams, administrators, and training operations to provide timely and effective support.

Users may report login problems, system errors, access issues, course availability concerns, assessment disruptions, certificate queries, and general LMS usability issues. The Help Desk handles first-level support and escalates complex cases when required.

Help Desk requests can be submitted through the LMS help ticket system or via the official LPS Academy support email. Users should provide their full name, registered email, course name, and a clear description of the issue.

Include relevant details such as screenshots, error messages, time of occurrence, and actions taken before the issue occurred. Clear information helps reduce resolution time and prevents repeated follow-up queries.

Help Desk operating hours are published on the LMS website. Requests submitted outside operating hours are logged and addressed during the next support window, unless marked as critical.

Tickets are prioritised based on severity, impact, and urgency. System-wide outages and access-blocking issues receive higher priority than general queries or enhancement requests.

Critical issues include system outages, widespread access failures, assessment submission failures affecting multiple users, or security-related incidents. These are escalated immediately.

Resolution time depends on issue complexity and severity of the issue. Simple issues may be resolved quickly, while complex cases requiring investigation or coordination may take longer.
