Now you are ready to login, please go ahead and do that , and you are ready to apply for membership of groups.

Step 2 - Group memberships

All work done in the PT’s and WG’s which are organised in groups under their relevant organisations (ECC, Com-ITU, CERP and ECO).

Some PT’s and WG’s are open, which means their work is publicly available on the CEPT portal. However as a member of the groups you will also be a member of the mail reflector and receive news by email from the group.

Other PT’s and WG’s are closed for public access, therefor you can experience a message that states you need to be a member to view the content. You can always find the relevant PT or WG chair contact information on this page, please contact The Chair directly if you find that should have access but haven't.

Membership is subject to either the group Chair or ECO expert approval (in coordination with The Chair)

Find first the organisation, and then the PT or WG you want to be a member of. See more instructions here how to apply for membership: Group Membership | wiki

  • Calendar - meetings in WG/PT will be advertised in the group calendar, here you can register for meetings.
  • Meeting documents - for meetings planned on the CEPT portal, there usually are an associated document storage associated. Use this to exchange relevant documents for the meetings.
  • Group Questions - sometimes its necessary to ask a simple question i.e. for the next meeting date a.o, this can be done in the Group Question module.
  • Mail reflector - an associated mailing list exists for all groups. All members of the relevant group become member of the associated mailing list. Please note that some groups can have extra mailing lists, these are usually listed on the frontpage of the group.
