Announcements and Notifications Overview
The Announcements and Notifications feature provides ways for users to receive important information. Notifications can be adjusted for receipt of relevant updates through channels a user prefers. Announcements are communicated in three ways:
- Notices are used to provide important information to users.
- Alerts are used to provide urgent information to users.
- Emergency Announcements are used to provide urgent emergency information to users.
