You are a new faculty or staff member at TTUS or TTU and are unable to sign in to TechAlert in order to update your contact information for emergency notifications.

Your ePAF is not complete or the official hire date on your ePAF is in the future.

Please wait until your ePAF is complete.

There is no provision for adding a faculty or staff member to TechAlert before their ePAF is complete. Departments should streamline their processes wherever possible to ensure that employee ePAFs are completed before the employee's start date.

You may wish to check with your employment services coordinator (ESC) to see if anything can be done to expedite the processing of your ePAF.

Once your ePAF is complete, update your details online to designate any one or more method(s) for alerts and ensure your details are accurate. The TechAlert system is preloaded with the primary phone number listed for you in the university's Banner system. This number may not be the most appropriate for an emergency, so it is strongly recommended that you check your information, and update it on a regular basis.

NOTE:

• TechAlert notifications are automatically sent to all TTUS and TTU faculty, staff, and students via TechMail. In addition to these email notifications, you can choose to be notified by voice call, text message, and TTY/TDD services.
• Students, faculty, and staff should not specify campus office phone numbers in their individual contact information. This helps to free up TTU enterprise resources to facilitate intra-campus communication.
• Emergency alert notifications will be sent automatically to designated contacts for each residence hall.

Outcome

You receive timely emergency notifications from the Texas Tech Police Department.
