易胜博 EMERGENCY ALERT!

In the interest of promoting the safety of our campus community, Rochester Community and Technical College has implemented an emergency notification system, 易胜博 Emergency Alert.

What is 易胜博 Emergency Alert?
易胜博’s emergency notification system makes it possible for students, employees, and community members to receive quick notifications by text, phone and email for campus emergencies that threaten life or safety and/or severely impact standard campus operations. The 易胜博 Emergency Alert system will only be used in emergency situations.

How do I sign up for alerts?
易胜博 Students and Employees:  All current 易胜博 students and employees automatically receive 易胜博 Emergency Alerts at their 易胜博 email accounts. If you wish to receive alerts as a text message, a phone message, or at another email address, you need to set up an account by using either your 易胜博 email address or a personal email address as a user ID. You will need to establish a password for this account.

All Others:  Non-易胜博 students and employees may sign-up to receive 易胜博 Emergency Alerts. If you wish to receive alerts as a text message, a phone message, or at an email address, you need to set up an account by using an email address as a user ID. You will need to establish a password for this account.

Password Settings:  Passwords must be at least 8 characters, include 1 lower-case letter, 1 capital letter and 1 number. Spaces and special characters are not permitted.
