If you're the primary Alpha leader who registered the course, you can add team members' emails into the "Team" section of your Alpha. They will receive an email with an access link to create their own account and password, and they will receive the same weekly email as the Alpha Leader. To add team members, here are the steps:
1 - Log in to MyAlpha.
After you log in, you will see your Alpha course on the dashboard. Please click the red "View & edit" button to open the next page. You will see 5 tabs at the top.
2 - Click on the "Team" tab.
This will be the 5th tab in the top menu. Only the Course Administrator can see this tab and add team members.
3 - Click "Invite team members" in the top right-hand corner.
4 - Add your team member's email address.
You can add individual emails or in the "Bulk Invite" section, add multiple emails separated by commas. Then click on the "Invite" button to send them an email invitation with an access link. For security purposes, the access link will expire after 7 days.
✅ Note: If your host/helper shows up as a "Course Administrator" in your Team section, it is because that's the role they chose when they created their own account. Please ignore the role in the Team section. They are all hosts & helpers.
🗓️ What happens after I add Hosts/Helpers to the Team section?
1 - They will receive an email invitation to join your Alpha.
The email asks them if they want to join the team. If they click on the link, they can log in to the MyAlpha system. If they don't already have a MyAlpha account, they can create one (more info here) using their own email address and password. They should not register an Alpha course; they join the one you registered!
2 - Your team has access to all the resources!
You don't have to forward anything to your Hosts/Helpers. They can log in with their own email and password and access the training videos, weekly Alpha videos, discussion questions, guest invitations, and more!
3 - Alpha Canada will send them weekly emails.
The emails include resources, links, and best practices for each Alpha session as long as your Alpha is running. Both Alpha Leaders and Hosts/Helpers receive the same email each week. The emails will arrive in your Inbox five days before your next Alpha session!
✅ Note: Hosts/Helpers added to the MyTeam section cannot access the Course Settings (start date, weekly sessions) and they cannot see the MyTeam section or add new team members. Only the Course Administrator can do this.
📩 To resend the email invitation to your host/helper...
In the "Team" tab, look under "pending" invitations. You can see if your team has not yet accepted your invitation. Click on the 3 dots beside the email address to "resend invitation."
Sometimes, there is a typo in the email address. If so, simply click on "remove team member" and then add the correct email address!
✅ Note: If you are a Course Administrator, please do NOT add yourself as a Team Member. That will change your access level and you will no longer have access to leader features. (Let us know if you did this by mistake; we can help!)
If you have any questions at all or have suggestions about how we can improve our system, please email us at support@alphacanada.org.
