In the event of a campus emergency it is important that you know how to obtain accurate information and instructions. The College will use many different methods to disseminate emergency information and instructions to ensure we can effectively relay alerts to the NCC Community. Please take the time to familiarize yourself with all of the possible notification methods.
Nassau Community College has partnered with Rave Mobile Safety to provide members of the campus community with a quick and efficient means of receiving emergency notifications. This system is called NCCAlert. NCCAlert will allow you to quickly receive emergency communications and other important announcements via text, e-mail and voice message.
As a current employee or registered student you are automatically enrolled in this new system. Any student, staff, or faculty member of Nassau Community College can subscribe to the NCCAlert service. NCC urges all students, faculty and staff to login and update their account information.
Students can manage their account by visiting https://www.getrave.com/login/ncc. Log in by using your College ‘N' number and your network password. Your Network Password is what you use to log onto campus computers and access Wi-Fi.
Faculty and Staff can manage their account through the Portal at myncc.ncc.edu. Click on the NCCAlert icon located in the Launchpad.
