INTRODUCING THE NEW NATCA BBS (BULLETIN BOARD SYSTEM) : Last week,
the Communications Department worked with the Information Technology Committee to
launch the new NATCA BBS (Bulletin Board System) . We invite all members to
participate. It ' s located at bbs.natca.org . As part of our continuing efforts to expand and
improve our communications offerings to you, giving you a greater ability to stay
info rmed and also make your voice heard with an audience of only your fellow members,
we have moved the old BBS to the new natca.org website and given it a much - needed
renovation.
Your login credentials to access the new BBS are the same ones you ' re currently
using to access the members side of the new natca.org site: username and password is
the same one you use to access the NATCA Portal. First - time users of the Portal and
members side of the website should go to portal.natca.org for a quick and easy
registr ation and sign - in.
You can use either bbs.natca.org or bbs.natca.net to access the new BBS.
ATTENTION FACREPS, AND ALL NATCA LOCAL REPRESENTATIVES:
We've created a section on the members side of the natca.org website designed
to be one - stop shopping for your needs in representing your l oc al. It's called "Member
Center " and can be found on the main home page after you've signed in to the member
side. There's also a menu item for it no matter whe re you're at on the site after signing in.
We originally called this section "FacRep Corner" but changed it to "Member
Center" to more accurately reflect its purpose: To house all relevant forms, labor
relations resources, and other information for all re ps to assist them. This i s where you
will also find our FacReps can bookmark this page , or simply find it easily on the home
page of the members side when you need it.
COMING SOON TO OUR NATCA LIBRARY SECTION : A new and improved
arbitration database.
If you see something that should be added to the Member Center , please let us
know by sending an email to WEBSITE@LIST.NATCA.NET .
