Don't Forget: Register as an Alerting Authority

All CAP alerting authorities should register with the WMO Register of Alerting Authorities. Be sure to include this important task in your Task List.

The Register was introduced in the CAP Basics course in Lesson 2: Alerting Authorities - Who to Trust.

The Register is maintained by the WMO. Each WMO member country's Permanent Representative (WMO PR) is responsible for registering official alerting authorities in their country. If your organization is an official source of CAP alerts, you'll need to contact your WMO PR to register. You can find your PR by locating your country on the WMO Country Profile Database and selecting the listed PR's name.
