With an increasing emphasis on safety in our nation’s colleges and universities, it has become a necessity to implement effective communications procedures among both faculty and student to ensure the safety and awareness of our future leaders and their mentors.
With Universal Alert, your school can contact faculty, staff, and the entire student body in the time is takes to read this message. As a mass notification system, Universal Alert has the capacity to trigger mass warnings and notifications in an emergency, or everyday.
Universal Alert allows you to send thousands of text, email or voice messages with a single click. Our web-based system is an essential part of a well-planned emergency preparedness plan as well as an ideal communications tool you can rely on everyday. One message, one click, notify all.
The amount of communication that is necessary in the field of education is significant. From the Board of Education to school principals, the Superintendents to school administrators, school administrators to faculty, facility personnel to administrators, administrators to parents and/or guardians, the school nurse to parents and on and on it goes.
For so long the calling tree has been the main method of communicating time sensitive and critical messages between the school and the parents and/or guardians of the student body as well as the teachers themselves.
The calling tree system has numerous flaws which have a pronounced affect on the quality, or lack thereof, of the message being properly delivered. The Universal Alert System is the answer to ensuring critical and non-critical messages are sent and received in a timely manner.
Here are a few scenarios where The Universal Alert System would be activated:
 School Closings
Early Dismissals
Security Issues
Transportation Issues
Policy Changes/Updates
Staffing
PTO Notifications
Facility Issues
Progress Report Notifications
Parent & Guardian Notices
Faculty Notices
