Here's How to Get In & What You Can Do

One of the most exciting parts of our platform modernization is the launch of the NC3C Members Portal — a dedicated space where you can manage your membership, access resources, register for events, and more, all in one place.


But before you can explore everything it has to offer, there's one important thing to know: your previous login credentials do not carry over. Because we've moved to an entirely new platform, every member needs to create a fresh portal account to get started.


How to Create Your Portal Account

  1. Go to the portal | Visit NC3C in your browser, hover over Members in the main menu and select Access the Membership Portal.

  2. Click "Sign Up" | You'll find this option on the sign-in page.

  3. Register Individual Account | Enter the same name and email address associated with your NC3C membership. This is how the system links your new account.

  4. Set your password | Choose a new password for your portal account.

  5. You're in | Once your account is created, you'll land on your member dashboard and can start exploring.


Not sure which email is on file? Reach out to our Secretary and we'll look it up for you before you create your account.


What You Can do in the Portal

Once you're logged in, your dashboard gives you access to six core areas:


Payments

Events

Invoices

Memberships

Member Directory

Documents

You Can Also Manage Your Own Information

Beyond those six core areas, the portal also lets you keep your own records up to date without having to contact the board. From your account settings you can update your address, phone number, and email; manage your contact information; and control your communication preferences.


Need help or have feedback?

If you run into any trouble creating your account or navigating the portal, don't hesitate to reach out to Nicole Hricik. We're still in the early days of this platform and actively working to improve the experience, your feedback genuinely helps.

Welcome to your new portal. We're glad you're here!

In honor of our 20th anniversary this year, we’re inviting our members to help shape the look of our next chapter! We’re launching a Logo Design Contest to refresh our organization’s logo and visual identity. As an organization created for and powered by government communicators, we can’t think of a better way to mark this milestone than by tapping into the creativity of our own members. The contest is open to current NC3C members, and entries must be original, human-created designs. AI-generated logos or design elements are not permitted. Before getting started, please review the full contest guidelines for design requirements, eligibility and submission details. Submit your logo concept through this entry form by Nov. 1, 2026 . After entries close, the NC3C Board of Directors will review the submissions and narrow the field to a group of finalists in December. Then we’ll turn it over to you! Finalist designs will be shared with the full NC3C membership for a vote to help select our new logo. And yes, there’s a prize! The member behind the winning design will receive complimentary registration to the 2027 NC3C Annual Conference, plus a complimentary hotel stay during the conference. We’ll also recognize the winning designer as we celebrate NC3C’s 20th anniversary at our annual conference in the spring of 2027 (we look forward to sharing these details too!) We can’t wait to see what our talented NC3C members create!
