# How can you Help?

The consultation period has now ended (as at Friday 29 January 2021).

### Contact your **Deans**

You can still show your support for our service by **sending an email** to relevant leaders:

* the Dean(s), Associate Deans, and Executive Director(s) of your faculty;
* the Associate Dean of Research (ADR) and Associate Dean of Graduate Research (ADGR) for your faculty;
* and the Head(s) of your school or department.

In your email, please share your experience as a researcher and help us show the University why our Training & Engagement service is important. If our service has supported your research, you can discuss how the skills we provided helped you expedite the completion of your research.

**Not sure what to say?** Read through [our Open Letter](https://saverescomtraining.gitbook.io/open-letter/master) and [some of the testimonies](https://saverescomtraining.gitbook.io/open-letter/evidence/testimonies) provided by signees to get some ideas.

#### 3. Submit a Service Now ticket

**Service Now tickets are no longer being accepted.**

If you are a University of Melbourne staff member, you can make your voice heard by **submitting a Service Now ticket** at <http://go.unimelb.edu.au/266i>

![Please select the following request details. Division: Chief Operating Officer's Portfolio. Sub-Division: Business Services. Topics: Proposed restructure.](https://3388451141-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-MN_F1TkjNdCGZXjSSBC%2F-MOTn6zqmVFUxFA6I2TA%2F-MOTwu-HNr0UTXcOgc5L%2FRequest_details.png?alt=media\&token=47462c05-8b81-4c7d-be27-688d8403b582)

There is an open text box where you can enter Feedback. We would greatly appreciate it if you could [**email us a copy of your Feedback**](mailto:saverescomtraining@gmail.com?subject=Service%20Now%20ticket\&body=I%20submitted%20a%20Service%20Now%20ticket%20with%20the%20following%20Feedback:) before clicking SUBMIT. This is because certain students may not be able to submit a Service Now ticket, and the University will not be responding to individual feedback.
