UGAAlert Test 2008

Jan 4, 2008 - 3:07:48 PM

On February 8th, 2008, UGA conducted a test of UGAAlert in conjunction with annual Severe Weather Drill.  This test simulated sending out an emergency message.  A brief message stating that a test of the UGAAlert system was being conducted was sent out to all users in the system.  The message  included notifications via voice phone calls to offices and cell phones, e-mail messages, and SMS text messages.  Users were contacted through every method listed in their account.

The previous test of UGAAlert was conducted on Sept. 26, 2007.

Thank you to all who participated in the drill and provided feedback from the drill.
