BELTSVILLE, Md. — Alertus Technologies, a market leader in unified mass notification, is pleased to announce that it will be partnering with Vanderbilt University for an in-person seminar focused on simplifying and improving mass notification. The seminar will take place in Nashville, Tennessee on Friday, February 28, 2020, from 9 a.m. – 2 p.m. CST.
“The upcoming Alertus seminar is a tremendous opportunity for emergency management and preparedness practitioners in higher education to share and learn new ideas as we navigate the daily issues and prepare our institutions to become more resilient,” said Johnny Vanderpool, Director of the Office of Emergency Preparedness, Fire and Workplace Safety at Vanderbilt University.
During the seminar, Leveraging Mass Notification Systems & Emergency Response to Severe Weather, attendees will learn how they can leverage mass notification systems to better prepare for and respond to weather-related incidents such as tornadoes and severe storms. A wide range of experienced professionals – from Vanderbilt University, the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, Alertus, and more – will join the conversation to provide insight on policies and procedures, integrating personal notification systems with a facility-based notification system, and the appropriate channels to leverage for a mass notification solution.
