**Notes:**
We’re often asked, ...“Who Is a GETS User?”  GETS users are generally defined as those in the NS/EP user community.

· A GETS user is potentially a government employee, at federal, state, or local level.  A user could also be an emergency response association or company employee.  one of our users today is the Red Cross.  it is not a government entity nor is it a business.  It is, however, a key part of every disaster response in which we become involved.
· Key industries can be GETS users.  We merely require assurance that the activity  to be supported meets the criteria for the NS/EP qualifications in use for this and other NCS programs.

## How An NCS MemberBecomes A GETS User

**Contact Your GETS Point Of Contact (POC) And Provide User Information (Complete GETS User Form)**** **

· Every NCS member and any other organization that requires GETS support will have a Point of Contact, a person or office which validates the requirements for service to us and keeps track of the card holders and their use of services.
