•  Generic Division registration procedures are outlined in paragraphs 4.1-4.6 of the Division Policy & Procedures Manual.  Procedures specific to each registration year:

• •  Division Registration Instructions

• •  Registration Transmittal Form

• •  National Registration Guidelines

•  Patrol Directors are ultimately responsible for all facets of their Patrol's registration process.

•  Always consult with the Division Registrar, if there ANY questions, problems or issues.  No excuse is valid for late submissions!

•  Line Staff: All membership related documentation is sent to the Division Registrar.  The Registrar will forward it to the National Office for you.  This practice will help keep our Division database up to date.

Online Registration System - National is in the final stages of testing and updating pertinent information.  Please remind your Patrol Representatives/Registration Coordinators to continue to gather and update their patrol information manually, as before, until the online system is available.

For the moment,  the payment procedure is not expected to change.  Expect to provide one check to National for 2010 annual membership registration dues and one check to the European Division for 2010 annual membership registration dues.

Patrol Directors/Registrars:   Don't wait for the completion of the annual YES/NO roster re-registration process to send in candidate forms to the Division Registrar.  New member / candidate registration forms and checks need to be processed ASAP so your candidates are loaded into the National system.  NSPS members are covered under the National insurance policy when in a sanctioned NSP training mode.  This is particularly important for ski skills screening at the annual November OTH Refresher.
Patrol Directors/Registrars:  All registration forms are available on the For Division Members page.  A new Division addition to the registration process is the European Form 16, Patroller Information Sheet

-  All new members and patrollers transferring into the Division need to fill out this form.  The Euro 16 form is not only the initial information feed to the Division Database, but can be used for any purpose to update the Division database. 

-  It is easily done by anyone who can open the document with Adobe Reader. 

It is not necessary for the PD to handle the data as it gets sent direct to the Registrar to enter into the database and can be done by anyone just to update their change in phone number, email or mailing address.  This form is a bit easier to get new member data into the database and faster than waiting for the official NSP membership form to get sent in by the PD.  It also contains more info that is relevant to the Division than the official NSP membership form.

ASAP - Patrol Directors:  Make sure you input the appropriate Classification Change paperwork to upgrade your candidate's status to either Auxiliary Patroller or Alpine Patroller.  Send these documents to the Division Registrar who will in turn forward to the National Office on your behalf.  Forms are available on the "For Division Members" page.
ASAP - New Patrol Directors: If you're newly elected into the Patrol Director position, make sure to process an Officer Change Form through the Division Registrar for forwarding to the National Office.  Forms are available on the "For Division Members" page.
ASAP - Patrol Directors:  As a check and balance for the Division database and your Patrol's organization web page information integrity, it is necessary to annually update/resubmit your Patrol Officer/Position Roster to the Division Registrar and the Division Webmaster.  It's a protected Word .doc that is completed by merely tabbing through each field of information.  Consider it a living document.  Keep it current and resubmit it whenever changes to your position roster occur.
Division Liability Release Form - Euro Form 10, Liability Release Form, with the scrutiny of the Division Legal Counsel has changes made to it effective 1 October 2007.

•  Effective immediately, the Liability Release Form is completed by all candidates during the registration process and members in a training status in any NSPS sanctioned course where the participant is subject to strenuous or dangerous activities.  Courses include but not limited to, OEC, Basic and Senior OTH training, Avalanche, and MTR, to name a few.

•  Forms are maintained by the Patrol Director for Patrol level OEC and OTH training.  The Instructor of Record in coordination with the Discipline Program Supervisor maintains release forms for all other activities.  This form (zip file) is available on the "For Division Members" page.
