Emergency Notification System (ENS)
The University of Regina Emergency Notification System (ENS) is designed to deliver effective and timely warnings to students, faculty, staff, and visitors on our campuses where immediate action must take place in order to stay safe in the event of an emergency.
The ENS leverages existing systems, such as computer monitors and television screens, across the main and College Avenue campuses.
The ENS is not linked to the Fire Alarm System and will not activate when the fire alarm sounds.
