Emerson Alert System Test on Friday

Emerson College will test its Emergency Notification System, Emerson Alert, for the Boston and LA campuses on Friday, February 1, at 12:00 pm ET and 9:00 am PT. This state-of-the-art system enables the College to communicate with students, faculty, and staff in the event of an emergency. It simultaneously transmits messages via telephone, email, and text messaging (SMS).

The College strongly encourages you to verify your contact information and notification preferences by visiting emerson.edu/emersonalert, using your Emerson login. We recommend that you add at least one mobile phone number to the system, as this is the fastest way to receive alert messages.

If you do not receive a test notification at the scheduled test time highlighted above, please update your contact information at emerson.edu/emersonalert.

If you need assistance updating your contact information in Emerson Alert, please contact the IT Help Desk at 617-824-8080.
