Technology Services | Alert System Registration Form

New River Community and Technical College offers an Emergency Alert System to communicate quickly with the New River educational community regarding campus closings and emergency situations. The Emergency Alert System sends SMS text messages to cell phones, email inboxes, and to the New River CTC facebook page. There is no charge for registration (it is free to our New River users) and any fees incurred by receiving the SMS messages on your cell phone will be nominal since it is used only seldomly. To receive the notifications on your cell phone or your email inbox you must complete the registration form.

After you register, your account will be active for one year (365 days). After that it will automatically expire. You can renew your account or remove your account at anytime. We've created a video tutorial that guides you through the registration and validation process (the video is only about two minuets in duration).

To register, please complete the information below:

The optional groups allow you to receive targeted messages specific to your campus location. For example, if you select "Greenbrier Valley Campus" as your optional group, you would not receive information that pertains only to the other campus locations (you would only receive information pertaining to the Greenbrier Valley Campus). If you have any questions regarding registration for the Emergency Alert System, please contact us (itsupport@newriver.edu or 304-929-6725).

We've added an optional group for non-emergency College Announcements. Anyone interested in receiving non-urgent College-related announcements may do so by choosing that group when you register. All accounts will automatically expire after 365 days. You may renew or remove your account at any time (view the tutorial).
