Support
Welcome to SETdesk! We’re here to help you with technical support.
Our team provides repair, maintenance, parts, and tech support for technology from our Loan Bank
We assist school teams with easy access to technical support and troubleshooting selections. We’re here to help get your tools and technology functioning smoothly so your time and efforts can be focused on your students.
Contact SETdesk
School teams requiring technical support or repairs for SET-BC technology should follow their districts’ IT policies and procedures for obtaining technical support. If those procedures involve contacting SET-BC for support, the district or school team member responsible for coordinating the technology implementation must contact SETdesk for a technology support job number and instructions BEFORE shipping the technology to the Provincial Centre.
Before calling SETdesk, please check all relevant help files, resources, and if possible, that the latest software updates and hardware drivers are installed. Whoever is contacting SETdesk must be a school or district staff member, must be familiar with the problem, and must have access to the SET-BC equipment and/or software installation files/media available when our support team calls.
In the event that a piece of SET-BC technology is lost or damaged, a school team will be asked to complete an incident report. Please contact SETdesk for this form (see contact information below).
For other inquiries not related to technical support for SET-BC equipment (including training-related issues), learn more about our training options on our Services Page.

Important Information
- A district or school team member MUST contact SETdesk for instructions and information BEFORE shipping technology to the provincial centre. If loaned equipment is returned without first contacting SETdesk, the school will bear the shipping costs.
- Since SET-BC’s mandate is to provide technology services to BC school districts and independent schools, we are unfortunately unable to offer technical support directly to parents and students or provide direct support for the use of SET-BC equipment outside of schools.
- Parents, students, and other non-school personnel requiring assistance with SET-BC equipment must contact their school-based team for assistance and technical support coordination.
- Technology returned to the SET-BC Provincial Centre in Vancouver for repair or replacement typically requires 15 days for repair/replacement and return shipping. If the technology must be returned to the vendor for repair, this timeline may expand considerably.
- In the event that repairs/replacements may take significant time, school team members are asked to discuss possible options with their SET-BC consultant.
