Reserving School of Education Rooms

Overview

Overview

This article covers the procedure for reserving rooms in Peabody Hall and the Carolina Center for Educational Excellence (CCEE). Each room type has a different reservation process – please see the conference rooms, classrooms, and CCEE rooms sections below for details.

Conference Rooms

Housekeeping Items

Rooms should never be held – only reserve rooms once a meeting time has been established.
Occasionally, meetings may need to be shifted around in order to ensure everyone’s needs are met:
- Be conscious of meeting requirements – only book larger rooms/rooms with enhanced technology if necessary.
- Include all meeting attendees on the invitation to have an accurate count.
- If you do not wish to include the meeting attendees, please include the number of attendees in either the subject or notes section.
Rooms should be cleaned up and returned to order once your meeting has concluded.
Not following these practices could jeopardize a person’s ability to continue to make room reservations.

Booking Procedure

School of Education faculty and staff reserve School of Education conference rooms via Outlook. Each conference room has its own calendar, and if the room is available invitations from SOE faculty and staff are automatically accepted. Others wishing to book SOE conference rooms will need to work with a School of Education faculty or staff sponsor to reserve the room for them.

To reserve a conference room, add the room to your Outlook calendar invite. After sending the invite, you will receive a confirmation email from the room calendar. Room availability is seen via the “Room Finder” function and scheduling assistant within Outlook. If you select a room that is not available your invitation will be declined.
