During Fall 2008 PVCC completed the installation of an upgraded fire alarm system that includes a Voice Notification System. This allows the Public Safety Office to communicate emergency situations to the entire campus or to individual buildings on campus.

Currently the college is expanding the number of emergency phones on the campus and is upgrading its closed circuit television system which allows the  PVCC Department of Public Safety to monitor campus activity. New cameras will be installed to cover areas where new buildings and access ways are now in use.
