Emergency Alert System

OFTC is committed to providing a safe and secure environment for its students, employees, and visitors. Students should familiarize themselves with the Emergency Preparedness Guide and evacuation procedures that are posted in each classroom. In the event of emergency, OFTC utilizes an online notification system that will send emails, texts, and phone calls to communicate emergency safety matters and/or urgent information. OFTC maintains written emergency plans for responses to various man-made and natural hazards, including a Hazard Communication Plan (hazardous materials & MSDS online) and the Exposure Control Plan (exposure to bloodborne and airborne pathogens).

In addition, OFTC complies with federal requirements relating to crime on campus, including the Clery Act and Violence Against Women Act.

Basic safety training that may be required by a specific course of study will be provided by the instructor. All information, emergency phone numbers, plans, and requirements as listed above can be found on the OFTC website under Safety & Security.
