Regroup at Southeast Community College
Southeast Community College replaced a calling tree-based
notification system to alert affected users during emergency
situations with Regroup.
Together, Regroup and SCC launched the emergency notification
system across all campuses with a strong marketing campaign
encouraging student sign-up.
Regroup has been the ENS/EMS provider of choice over the last four
(4) years and is currently being rolled-out as a day-to-day tool to
streamline communications.

Primary Focus
 How can we communicate with all of our users between various
campuses?
 How can we communicate with our affiliates effectively?
 How can we get that information out to them efficiently?
