Windows Embedded Partner Program Enrollment Instructions
STEP #1: Designate the “Primary Contact” for your company
The Primary Contact is responsible for enrolling your company in the Windows Embedded Partner Program (WEPP) and
for maintaining your company’s Partner Profile and Promotions on the Windows Embedded Partner Program Resource
Center. The members of your company decide who the Primary Contact will be. The Primary Contact completes the rest of
the steps below to enroll your company in WEPP.
STEP #2: The Primary Contact creates his or her Windows Live ID
All users of the Windows Embedded Partner Program Resource Center use the Windows Live ID service to sign in. This
service keeps personal information private while allowing for convenient and secure access everywhere on the service.
The Primary Contact creates his or her Windows Live ID. Click here to do so now.
Other members of your company who wish to access the Windows Embedded Partner Program Resource Center (PaRC) will
also wish to create their own Windows Live ID. However, they will not be able to access PaRC until the Primary Contact has
completed the steps outlined in this document.
STEP #3: The Primary Contact signs up for the Microsoft Partner Program
All users of the new Windows Embedded Partner Resource Center must be “Registered” members of the Microsoft Partner
Program (MSPP). This program offers training, sales and marketing, and customer service resources to support your
business efforts every day as well as providing your business with promotional opportunities across the Microsoft
ecosystem. There is not a fee for joining the Microsoft Partner Program at the registered level.
If your company is already a member of MSPP, the Primary Contact must make sure that his or her
Windows Live ID is associated with your company’s MSPP profile.
Please note that all members of your team that wish to access the Windows Embedded Partner Program Resource Center
(PaRC) will need to associate with your company’s MSPP profile. However, they cannot access PaRC until after the Primary
Contact associates his or her Windows Live ID with MSPP and sets up your company’s membership in the Windows
Embedded Partner Program.
