AlertNow Career Opportunities

Company Information:

Today, parents and communities expect their schools to provide them with information instantly. Rapid notification services help school systems meet this demand. Educators now have the ability to deliver thousands of voice, text, or e-mail messages per minute to parents and staff concerning school safety issues and important events.

Inefficient and obsolete methods, such as phone trees, divert valuable staff resources at times when they are needed most. Rapid notification services are essential to communicate quickly with parents in both emergency and non-emergency situations.

About AlertNow:

AlertNow pioneered rapid notification services in 2003, introducing one of the first Software as a Service (SaaS) options to provide rapid communications. AlertNow continues to lead the industry, delivering more than 9,000,000 messages each month on behalf of 30,000 school administrators in all 50 states across the USA.

More than just a rapid dialer, AlertNow enables schools to deliver thousands of messages to telephones, mobile phones, PDAs or any Internet-enabled device within minutes. No new hardware or software is required, and AlertNow is FERPA compliant.

AlertNow provides fast and effective notification for emergency situations and weather-related school closings. School districts across America are also using AlertNow to increase parental involvement, improve student attendance and bridge language barriers between parents and schools. AlertNow offers educators a powerful, accurate, and cost-effective communication solution.

AlertNow is headquartered in Raleigh, N.C. and has regional offices in Massachusetts, Mississippi, Missouri, Texas, Ohio, Delaware, and South Carolina.

Market Overview:

AlertNow was developed specifically to serve education markets. There are more than 67 million students in K-12 public and private schools in the United States. All of these schools are not only responsible for educating students but are also responsible for encouraging parental involvement, increasing student attendance and preparing for emergencies. With the increase of threatening incidents occurring on school grounds, it is exceedingly important for schools to stay connected to their communities.
