CTXALERT Emergency Notification System Information

Concordia University Texas provides notification services to students and employees in emergency situations through CTXALERT. This ability to contact large groups of people via multiple communication methods during an emergency situation is critical to successfully managing the situation.

All university students and employees are strongly encouraged to enter and/or verify ALL personal emergency contact information in MyInfo.

The CTXALERT system will only be used during critical emergency situations and never for marketing or non-emergency communication. Keeping contact information in MyInfo updated assures emergency messages will be properly delivered. 

To enter or update your emergency contact information in MyInfo:

1. Log on at myinfo.concordia.edu using your CTX ID and PIN.
2. Select the Personal Information link from the main menu.
3. Select the Emergency Notification Information link from the Personal Information menu.
4. Make changes as appropriate.

All questions about entering emergency notification information should be directed to the Helpdesk at 512-313-4357.

If a major emergency requires establishing a campus emergency operations center (EOC), such a facility will be implemented in the Blackbox Theater in building B (B-230)
