Emergency Alerts

CU System employees are automatically enrolled in email alerts but must opt in to receive alerts via text message. RAVE alerts available to opt-in for texts include:

• IT emergency maintenance and unplanned outage emails
• Weather Closures according to CU Denver’s weather closure schedule

CU System Administration follows CU Denver’s weather closure schedule. By signing up for texts, you’ll receive CU Denver’s weather closure and delay alerts, which also apply to CU System Administration.

CU employees working at one of four campuses can sign up for both email and text messages about IT maintenance and unplanned service outages.

Employees can also sign up for non-production maintenance windows.  Non-production maintenance windows only affect the testing and development versions of CU's production systems. All live systems are not impacted. These alerts are only recomended for IT professionals impacted by these windows.

All benefits-eligible CU employees may sign up for text alerts regarding deadlines and information about selecting their benefits during CU’s Open Enrollment (typically in late April) and Medicare Fall Enrollment (typically in October).

Note: If you're currently enrolled in alerts for weather, closures, IT maintenance or IT system unplanned outages, you must also enroll separately in Open Enrollment alerts.
