Safety and Security
Kwantlen Polytechnic University is committed to providing you a safe and ready learning environment. We have established an Office of Emergency Planning responsible for the implementation of our READYCAMPUS™ program and the administration of our Campus Security Services.
Emergency Planning
In the event of an emergency, any emergency, please follow the instructions provided by our EAGLE EYE digital signage system, your faculty, and other designated emergency response personnel (such as Campus Security Services, Campus Emergency Response Team members, Fire Fighters, and Police Officers). We are in process of developing a Total Alert Emergency Notification System involving many elements, some of which will be tested in the course of your studies or work here. Please see the Office of Emergency Planning (kpu.ca/emergencyplanning) for more detail on the READYCAMPUS™ program and other relevant emergency management information.
ReadyCampus is the trademarked (2010) name of Kwantlen Polytechnic University's Emergency Management Program (based on NFPA 1600 [www.nfpa.org/assets/files/PDF/NFPA16002010.pdf]) administered by the Office of Emergency Planning.
