Be Prepared to Show your ATA Card

To prove eligibility at our Convention teachers may be asked to show their ATA Member Cards. The MPTCA has never felt the need to police sessions and ask for identification from every teacher attending. However, on occasion a person’s eligibility to be at our Convention has been questioned, so proof may be requested. This convention is for ATA members and we want to ensure that there is space for teachers to attend the sessions of their choice. We are also protecting teachers under the ATA Professional Code of Conduct which non-teachers are not required to adhere to.

 

Teachers who do not have a Member Card can register at the MPTCA office at the GP Composite High School on Wednesday from 1 to 5 p.m. or during regular Convention hours. Please provide proof of employment when registering. You can also print your card from this self-serve site https://cards.teachers.ab.ca.
