 # Getting Started
 
-If you'd like us to walk you through setup, feel free to email fuzailshakir@berkeley.edu or join the `#161-extension-bot` channel on EECS Crossroads. That said, all of this is self-serve, so you could follow this guide entirely by yourself if you'd like!
+If you have questions, check out the [FAQ](https://github.com/berkeley-cdss/extensions/blob/master/FAQ.md) or ask in the `#161-extensions` channel on EECS Crossroads.
 
 It takes ~15 minutes to onboard your class onto this tool, and that time pays off as soon as your first extension requests start rolling in :)
