Registration Process

The NCPC registration uses the official ICPC registration system. This makes the registration process simpler for both students and site directors and also increases the chanses that NWERC gets more slots in the World Final. To register a team follow this registration guide. All teams should register through the ICPC system, even those that are not ICPC eligible.

Step 0:
One of the team members has to be Team Captain, and it is the team captain that registers the team.

Step 1 (create an ICPC-account if you don't have any):
The Team Captain needs to have an ICPC-account. If you have participated before you most likely already have an ICPC-account, otherwise you need to create one.
To create an ICPC-account:

  1. Click on the "Register"-tab on the main ICPC-page (http://icpc.baylor.edu/).
  2. Fill in all the required fields. Your email address will be your unique username.
  3. In the Institution field just type your city, and then you will get a suggestion for your university. Click on that.

Step 2 (log in):
The Team Captain logs in on the main ICPC-page:

  1. Click on the "Log in"-tab on the main ICPC-page (http://icpc.baylor.edu/).
  2. Fill in your email and password and click "Log in".

Step 3 (register your team):
On the Team Captains Dashboard-page, click the "Create a team"-tab.
Please read the instruction guide on top of each new page carefully!

  1. Select a contest and site:
    Click on Europe, open Norhtwestern Europe, open Nordic Collegiate Programming Contest, click on your site.
  2. Name your team and choose your institution:
    Fill in Team name and your university (as in step 1.3 above).
    Click on Next.
  3. Verify team information (assign team members):
    First assign your team members (including yourself):
    Click on the plus sign (+) for each contestant.
