Yes, Michael's Cue bid is generally considered alertable. It is a bid that indicates a strong hand with a long suit, typically a major, and a desire to play at the three-level. Players should notify their opponents about this bid since it conveys specific information about their hand, which is not part of the standard bidding conventions.
A Michaels cue-bid is a commonly played convention which uses a direct cue-bid of the opponents' suit to show a 2-suited hand.

Following are some 'Precision-specific' cases to keep in mind. The field of cue-bidding is so wide that more is not really possible in this type of forum! I'll talk about two types of cue-bidding situations: 1. Specific to Goren's Precision bidding system 2. Specific to interference over Precision ==== 1. A couple of key situations are different in Precision - after a strong 1C opening and positive response, he plays a jump shift by opener as strong with a very strong suit. Responder is expected to cue-bid with extra values and an interest in slam - after a strong 1C opening and positive suit response, a raise by opener is a Trump Asking Bid (TAB). Subsequent bids by opener are control asking bids, and the responses show (in effect) controls similar to cue-bids would otherwise. 2. Over interference over a 1C opening (at a level of 2NT or higher) the most important thing is to show number of controls (A=2, K=1, void/singleton in enemy's suit is 2/1). There are various step bids, but a cue-bid in this case shows 4 controls (with at least one in the enemy suit) and either support for the other 3 suits or a strong suit of your own.
