Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How can I be sure my company qualifies to apply for NCTC membership?
A: Complete the Qualification Questionnaire for Prospective Applicants, and submit the information to NCTC. If NCTC determines that the prospective applicant qualifies to apply for membership, NCTC Membership Affairs will contact you and send application materials.

Q: My company is buying an existing NCTC member company (or cable system); why do I have to go through the application process?
A: NCTC membership is not assignable or transferable. In any situation in which there is a change of control or ownership of an NCTC member company or its cable systems, NCTC evaluates the membership qualifications of the new acquiring or controlling entity.

Q: I was an NCTC member years ago and sold my systems. Can I reactivate my membership?
A: No. NCTC membership belongs to the legal operating entity engaged in providing services, not to individuals. If your company sold, shut down or otherwise quit participating under NCTC master agreements for any reason, your company's membership was terminated. NCTC does not reactivate memberships.

Q. Will NCTC assist with the development of our business plan?
A. No. NCTC does not provide professional consulting services.
