EMS OVERVIEW (SKIDMORE’S CENTRALIZED EVENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM) 

Here's a general overview of EMS. A more detailed How To Use EMS Guide is also available to walk you through step-by-step.

Training sessions to learn about EMS will be offered for beginners and frequent users throughout the semester as needed. We recommend attending the most appropriate level session to suit your needs. The pace of the beginner's session will be much slower and more comprehensive. 

Hands-on, one-on-one training sessions are also available. To schedule a session, please contact the Scheduling Office at schedule@skidmore.edu.
