Access and Edit Your CIA Alerts Account
Updated onArticleCIA's emergency notification system enables the Institute to send urgent news to your cell phone, email and voicemail.
This system enables us to directly send you TXT, Email and Voice notifications which contain:
1. Emergency information
2. School closings
3. Weather-related schedule changes
It will not be used for general CIA announcements.
Depending on your personal cell phone plan, there may be a nominal fee from your carrier to receive text messages, but there is no charge from the Institute to use this service.
All students and employees are pre-registered for CIA Alerts based on information currently on file with the Institute. This includes name and CIA email address. Student cell phone numbers are also preloaded (if provided).
To ensure that you will be notified you must verify and update your personal information.
Family members whom you wish to receive Alerts should be added as additional email addresses and or phone numbers within your account. You may have a maximum of 2 SMS (TXT) numbers, 6 Email addresses and 4 Voice numbers listed.

Updated onArticleYou may have noticed that sharing Google Drive items (folders, docs, sheets, etc) with students via a shared link often results in the students requesting access. You many have also noticed that when students share a link to a Google Drive item with you, you also cannot view without requesting access.
