ATLS FAQ

For ATLS owners and managers
How do annual fees work?

Annual fees are based on the number of employees/students you enroll and follow the subscription fee price grid. The ATLS is activated on the date you purchase the program and remains active until 1 year from that date. You can add seats to your subscription at any time throughout the year. At the time of renewal, the following price grid will also be used to calculate your subscription.

Can I see a demo of what the ATLS looks like?

Absolutely! Please click the link to fill out the contact form and a CHIMA team member will be in touch to book an appointment: https://www.echima.ca/atls/#contact

 

Can employees participate in the same offerings together (e.g., lunch and learn)?

Each team subscriber will need to individually sign into their account to access the ATLS collection. It is through here they can complete each offering in order to track the progress of their own professional development. For subscribers who are CHIMA professional members, it is especially important for tracking their continuing professional education credits with the Canadian College of Health Information Management.

We encourage employers to have deeper discussions on the key takeaways their employees have gained through their learning.

Will I be able to track my employees learning?

You will be able to see when subscribers have last logged in to their account with CHIMA.

How will my employees access the ATLS offerings?

They will need to sign in to their CHIMA account and click on their name in the top-right corner to access their dashboard. A 'My annual team learning subscription' card will appear. By clicking to explore, they will see their ATLS collection and can individually add items to their cart to gain access.

Are there different types of roles once a team is created?

Yes.

The person responsible for the payment of an ATLS is considered the owner of their organization's team. The owner will be able to invite team subscribers by sharing a join link or by adding in email addresses directly. There is an option to assign managers to assist with subscription management.

Can I add more subscribers once I've purchased an ATLS for my organization?

Yes. A CHIMA administrator will be able to assist you with this.

Who can manage the team’s seats?

The person who purchased the subscription and assigned managers can adjust who gets the number of seats an organization has purchased. That’s done through their dashboard.

If I remove someone from an ATLS seat, what happens?

They will no longer have access to the ATLS collection of products for $0.

If someone is both a CHIMA member and an ATLS holder, which price do they get?

This depends on the product. We suggest going through the dashboard to access the ATLS collection for items that will be $0. If the item is not included in the ATLS collection, then a person will pay either the public price or preferred pricing associated with being a CHIMA member (e.g., student, affiliate, professional or retired).

What is the difference between a CHIMA ATLS and a corporate pass?

A CHIMA Annual Team Learning Subscription gives you access to over 100 offerings for your team to learn from (e.g., HIP Week 2021, a 5-part leadership series, professional practice briefs, etc.).

A corporate pass is offered for individual products for groups of 5+ more staff (e.g., HIP Week 2021 exclusively).
