Problem / Issue
Implementing the capability to message students vis SMS Text messaging for important purposes including Account Recovery, password reset, notification of in-progress applications, and more - has been part of the original OpenCCC federated identity charter and roadmap since OpenCCC was implemented in 2011. The feature has been postponed several times of the years for multiple reasons, most recently being that we were unable to implement this from a technical perspective until OpenCCC moved from Rackspace to Amazon Web Services.
However, since May 2017, we have moved onto AWS and can now move forward with this enhancement with will drastically improve and support our students with SMS text messaging capabilities.
