It outlines the process we use in providing support, as well as detailing the procedure for lodging support tickets in our Help Centre, to ensure you receive the best level of support and care with eSkilled.

*A problem or defect is defined as a verifiable and reproducible software problem, or error, that causes a failure of the server or software to operate substantially in accordance with applicable end-user documentation. This excludes issues or errors caused by customer customisations of courses, reports or other functions edited by customers.
Before lodging a support request, we urge all clients to visit our Knowledge Centre to find tutorials on how to complete most functions in the eSkilled Software, you can access our knowledge base by clicking HERE. We find most clients will find the answer they need here without needing to wait for a support response.
If you are unable to find the answer or have a critical support need, all support requests should be lodged through one of the two support ticket processes below:
This can be done in two ways:
The Help Centre is monitored 9am-5pm(AEST) Monday to Friday (excluding public holidays), requests for support outside of these hours will be actioned during the next applicable business hours session.
Upon receipt of the customer issue, our team will strive to provide a case number, priority, and next steps as quickly as possible. We always work to resolve issues as quickly as possible. Any issues not resolved within the initial response, will be investigated to determine the issue impact, priority level and response times as documented below. The following table outlines the Support Issues Description, Priority level and target response time for different issues reported
