We hope you've had the summer you needed and are raring to go - as we are here at Scomis.
This email features the most common start-of-the-academic-year queries our Service Desk receive every year. We thought this was the most helpful thing we could do for you in this week of preparation. Please forward this email to your colleagues to help them too.
Before we dive into the coming year though, a quick look at this year's exam days. We've analysed our customers' usage of Scomis Hosted Application Service to understand what happens when exam results are released. If you're as curious as we are to see how everyone else behaves on these crucial days you'll find our analysis here.
Everyone at Scomis wishes you the best possible 2023-24. We’re looking forward to being of service to you and your colleagues.
