Campus Technology Free 1 Hour Webinar: Three Keys to an Effective Emergency Communications Plan

Join Campus Technology and Alcatel-Lucent for this FREE 1-hour webinar.
Date: Thursday, April 22, 2010
Time: 11 AM (PDT)/2 PM (EDT)
Today's campuses are under increasing pressure to ensure the safety of their students, faculty and staff against threats of violence, natural disaster or pandemic outbreak. Plus, new federal mandates require campuses to have enhanced E.911 capabilities. Meeting these needs means having communication systems that enable you to quickly push information to the campus community and connect first responders. In this webinar, experts from Western Washington University and Alcatel discuss the three key components of an effective advanced emergency communications plan: awareness, response coordination and campus notification. Get a blueprint for creating an effective emergency communications plan that:
* supports lockdown procedures
* provides emergency notification
* integrates with building control systems to support surveillance
* delivers alarms and alerts
* enhances responsiveness of campus security personnel and administrators


Bring questions for our experts. Campus Technology's Matt Villano will lead an interactive Q&A session with our presenters immediately following the live presentation.
