College of Western Idaho (CWI) conducted a test of its alert notification system, CWI Alerts, to help ensure the CWI community is notified of any potential emergency situations. The test occurred on Sept. 29 at approximately 3:00 p.m. CWI uses Rave Mobile Safety to inform students, employees, and the extended College community of critical situations.
Employees and students are automatically enrolled to receive alerts to their CWI email and any phone numbers provided when joining the College. To ensure the safety of the CWI community and provide timely emergency messages, it is important that current contact information is provided.
CWI partners and friends can sign up to receive alerts by visiting cwi.edu/alerts. The service is free, but text messaging fees may be charged from cellular providers.
CWI Alerts are only used for critical circumstances including severe weather, snow closures, utility failure, hazardous material spills, violent incidents, and other situations with the potential to affect the health or safety of people on campus. Please email communications@cwi.edu with any questions.
