As a part of Halifax Community College’s ongoing effort to keep students and employees safe and well-informed, HCC is now offering an emergency text messaging service. Once registered for this service, text messages and emails will be sent to your mobile device in the event of severe weather, campus emergency or emergency closing. It will not be used for routine communications. All students and employees are encouraged to sign up.
Scroll down and click the Sign Up For HCC Mobile Alerts link. You will be asked for your first and last name, email, and you will create a password.
Once logged in, add your home number (for landlines you must check the ‘Voice’ box), cellular number, and email (be sure to click the ‘Send Email here’ box).
IMPORTANT!! After you have filled out your contact information, on the left side of the screen you’ll see a menu. Click the last option ‘Groups’, then on the Groups page, you must click the ‘Join’ link beside Emergency Alerts. If you do not complete this step, you WILL NOT receive Emergency Alerts!!
HCC does not charge to provide this service HOWEVER your carrier may charge standard text messaging fees. Check with your service provider regarding text messaging fees pertaining to your account.
