Please take time to acquaint or reacquaint yourself with the Inclement Weather Delays/Closure Policy. Supervisors are reminded to identify their essential personnel in anticipation of weather-related delays or closures. Employees should discuss questions about this policy with their supervisor. Students should discuss any questions with the Dean of Students.
Reminder about Notifications of Cancellations and Closures
:
Official notifications from the institution regarding cancellations or closures will be posted on the WVU Tech home page at wvutech.edu; distributed via email to University-managed (Outlook/MIX) email accounts and Tech alert registered email accounts; and distributed via text messages through Tech Alert to registered telephone accounts. Closure information may be communicated by media outlets but the official announcement will be those messages that are shared directly by the institution.
To sign up for Tech Alerts (or to update your information in Tech Alert):
This system has recently changed, so please use this information to sign up. The policy will be updated to reflect this change soon.
- Visit alert.wvutech.edu .
- Once on that page, scroll down to the list of audiences for the alert system.
- Select “faculty and staff.” Follow the directions listed on the Faculty and Staff page.
While some cell phone providers may charge a nominal fee to receive text messages,
WVU Tech does not charge for this service. WVU Tech Alert accounts must be updated
to remain active. Failure to receive notifications from an established account
may require updating of the account through emergency.wvutech.edu. If you have
any questions, concerns or issues please contact WVU Alert at
wvualert@mail.wvu.edu
or call the ITS Service Desk at (304) 293-4444.
