Installation of local applications

The Managed Desktop Service allows for designated users to install applications locally on staff PCs and departmentally owned student PCs. This facility will allow users to install applications which are not provided centrally by CiCS as well as allowing users to install local printers and other peripheral devices.

Departments may request a local administration account from CiCS by filling in the form. Please note only one account will be issued to each department.

Please select the appropriate form to apply for an account to install applications locally on Staff and/or Students computers.
