Officebooking for employees

Officebooking is also available for employees of NHL Stenden University of Applied Sciences. As an employee you have insight into the real-time use of the (general) meeting rooms in the app, so you can quickly find an available meeting room.

Can I also book a room through the app or on the displays?

No, employees of NHL Stenden University of Applied Sciences can book a room in their usual way (via Outlook or the Service desk). With the app and on the displays at the meeting rooms you only have insight into the agenda of the room in question so that you can view the reservations already made. Of course keep this in mind if you are going to use a space “spontaneously”.

What happens if the room is booked but not used?

If the space is not used within 30 minutes after the start of the reservation, the reservation will be canceled.

Frequently asked questions

How do I find a free space?

The app opens by default with a list/map with all free spaces based on the main location you have set. A free space is indicated with a green icon / bubble. You have the option to filter by time, date or category. You can also use the search function at the top of the menu.

Is the data real-time and when will it be refreshed?

Yes, the data is real-time. The data is measured by sensors in the room. However, there is a processing period of a few minutes. The occupancy rates and the status of the rooms are updated every time there are changes. The data is refreshed when you open the app, change location or view and when you press the Refresh button.

What does the percentage mean?

We measure how busy a study landscape is. The percentage that can be seen behind the room is an estimate based on the number of available places. Because the use of the workplaces varies greatly, it is an indication of how busy it is, not an exact representation.

What does ‘Scan for beacons’ mean?

In the Settings you will find the option ‘Scan for beacons’. By enabling this setting, your current location will be checked when searching for free spaces. This way you only see the availability of the rooms that are close to you.
