Subscription to the System
The accreditation application procedure begins with subscription to the GetYourEvent Platform. Every user can enter the system with their own email address and password. Media representatives not having an account can create it by clicking on the "Create a new MEDIA account" link
Radio/TV and Media multiple accounts follow a different procedure: they must ask for the creation of an account by clicking on the link on the homepage. Please see dedicated guide.
Create a new account
1
To create a new account click on "Create"
2
Fill in all fields in the form (users will be asked to choose their own password by providing some basic personal information)
Please note that **it is not possible to create several accounts with the same e-mail address**

Read the privacy policy carefully, select "Agree privacy policy" and then click on "Sign up"
As soon as the data are saved by clicking on "Sign up", a message will be sent to the e-mail address provided, to ask the confirmation of the email address
If you don't receive the email within few minutes, please check the **spam box.** The activation token is valid 24 hrs only: once time expires it will not be possible to create an account on the used email anymore.

By clicking the link in the message, the email address will be confirmed and the user will be redirected to the platform that can now simply be accessed by clicking on "Sign in" (for future uses the chosen password will be necessary)
5
After clicking on "Sign in", user will receive an email confirming he/she has subscribed the platform and that **he/she did not make any kind of accreditation request yet**

At the same time the browser will be redirected to the personal data page, which is the first of the six steps user will have to follow in order to apply for an event on the platform for the first time
**Do not close your browser before the entire registration process is over**, otherwise all the entered data may go lost
1st Step – Entering Personal Data

In the personal data page, users will have to fulfil all the compulsory fields that are marked with a red asterisk.\
Those fields not marked with an asterisk can be left unfilled.\
However for some events they might be necessary: in that case, before completing the accreditation users who left them not filled will be required to complete the information.\
Once every compulsory field is filled, users can click on "Next"
2nd Step – Inserting Data Related to Media
The second step of the procedure is about the information concerning media users belong to.\
**Freelancers** will have to select the "Freelance" check box. By doing so they will only have to enter what kind of media they work for and skip the rest of Media data fulfilling.

Enter the data of your media: if the media you belong to has already been entered in the system by previous users, you will find the rest of its data prefiilled (please contact the event organiser to change pre-registered media data, if they are wrong)
