Becoming a JCP Member: Submitting Manually-signed Agreements

Becoming a Member |  Instructions for Full Membership |  Instructions for Associate Membership |  Instructions for Partner Membership |  JCP Membership Info |  Why Join  

Having printed and filled out your agreement manually, you will need to submit the signed agreement to the JCP Program Management Office to complete the Membership process.

The primary mechanism for executing a JCP Membership agreement is to sign it electronically. If you cannot or will not sign the agreement electronically, you may execute the Agreement via fax, soft-copy or hard-copy. Below are the instructions for all. Please be cautioned that a manually-signed agreement will take significantly more time to process than an electronically-signed agreement. In addition, a hard-copy only submission (mailing an original signed paper copy of the agreement to the PMO) will take significantly more time to process than scanning or faxing the agreement. If you or your organization would like to keep an original of the executed agreement, we suggest that you first sign the agreement electronically (or send us your agreement via soft-copy or fax), and then send us a hard-copy via post.
 

Fax Instructions for Executing an Agreement

If you or your organization requires an original copy of the signed agreement, please follow the instructions in the last section, for executing the agreement using hard-copy. To execute the agreement via fax, please follow these steps:

If you haven't done this already, please refer to the instructions for Full Members, the instructions for Partner Members, or the instructions for Associate Members.  
    NOTE: Do not edit the agreement electronically. Electronically modified agreements cannot be accepted.

When Oracle executes the agreement, a copy will be sent back to you via e-mail.
