Employer Access to the Directory

Employers or supervisors will need access to the Directory in order to verify HCA education, HCA information, competency status and employment information.

How to become a supervisor and/or manager on the Directory

info@albertahcadirectory.com using your work email account. The email must include your official organizational signature/logo to verify your supervisor/manager title. The email should include the following:

• First and Last name of the supervisor

A request cannot be placed on behalf of another supervisor or manager. A separate request
must be placed by that supervisor with the Directory with the above-mentioned information.
