Common questions

So is it one account or two?

One. Your Member account is the foundation. When you complete the contributor training, your same account simply gains contributor abilities — like an endorsement added to a driver's license. Same email, same password, same login button.

Do I have to become a contributor?

No. Many of our members never go through the training, and that's completely fine. The training is required only if you want to upload content to NOCM or rent station equipment à la carte.

Who can become a contributor?

You're eligible if you're at least 18 years old (minors can participate with parental consent) and you either live in Clallam or Jefferson County, work for a Peninsula-based nonprofit or business, or have a documented vested interest in the North Olympic Peninsula.

How much does it cost?

Membership is free. Contributor training is free. If you'd like to support NOCM financially, we welcome donations — but nothing in this process costs you anything but time.

I'm a partner organization, not an individual. Where do I go?

There's no separate partner sign-in — everyone starts by signing up as a member. Partner organizations help fund our mission; once you've joined, we'll invite you to become a partner, which unlocks event posting and content uploads.

What happens to my information?

NOCM stores only what we need to serve you: name, contact info, and your activity on the platform. We never sell or share your information. Sensitive data like signed agreements is encrypted at rest.
