How do family members get access to the GAT?
There are two methods for family members to get access to the GAT. First, access is granted through the Army Knowledge Online using their assigned user name and password. However, this method requires that their service member sponsor them in the AKO environment. Instructions for sponsoring a family member in AKO is located here. Second, access is granted via an alternate method where a family member signs up for access to the GAT. Here, family members provide basic information that is confirmed against the DEERS database, and the system then provides a user name and password that will grant access to the GAT. This alternate method does not require service member sponsorship. Go here for access.
