Services

CCT offers a number of services to members of the University and non-University patrons.

Non-university groups or individuals may contact the CCT for the hire and use of facilities for public and private functions. In accepting requests for the use of facilities, the University reserves the right to service its own instructional obligations. The Gateway Building is ideal for larger groups when these require also small group discussions. The Lecture Theatres offer an ideal setting for a public lecture. All lecture venues come with audio amplification. Other optional services may be requested depending of the requirements of the occasion. Please contact Mr. Keith Rogerson on extension 2433.

CCT operates on a charge-back system to cover its expenses. Departments/Institutes using CCT, the Lecture Centre or the Gateway services for class instruction purposes during normal university working hours are only charged for the cost of consumables. Yet these same entities will be charged for any personnel overtime cost for functions taking place after office hours. Every attempt is made to provide a cost-sharing exercise when multiple functions are taking place at the same time. In such instances, before a reservation can be confirmed, CCT would require that the request for services be accompanied by a signed authorisation to charge the Department/Institute through a direct transfer of funds by University Administration.

Non-university groups or university groups organising functions in conjunction with non-university entities are charged for the use of facilities, equipment and personnel services. In such cases the organising body is issued a bill for services requested which must be settled with the Accounts Department of the University before the activity takes place. Failure to present a receipt for the settlement of the bill may result in the cancellation of the function.
