Emergency Notification Service Quick Test Feature Now Available

Sunday, May 4, 2008

The University's Emergency Notification Service (ENS) now offers a new Quick Test feature that enables students, faculty, and staff to send a test message to their ENS contact numbers. To use the Quick Test feature, log in to my.pitt.edu, click the Emergency Notification Service tab, and follow the instructions provided.

Please note that all ENS text messages will now display 41526 in the message header and all ENS voice messages will now display 412-624-1526 as the caller ID. This represents a change from the 555-555-5555 number that was previously displayed. The new 412-624-1526 number will display for both ENS Quick Test messages and actual alerts.

Please contact the Technology Help Desk at 412-624-HELP [4357] if you have any questions about this announcement or would like additional information.
