ACAA MATTERS
Membership
T
he ACAA website has many built-in and automated or partially automated functions allowing you to manage your site account, profile, directory listings and membership. In this article, I will take you through some of the procedures for managing the aforesaid items.
SITE ACCOUNT Anyone who applies for membership, registers for an ACAA event or interacts with any of the site’s inbuilt functions opens a site account automatically on their first interaction with the site. This account is kept in perpetuity regardless of your ACAA membership status so you can view records of interactions you have had with the site. When you sign up for an account through any of these interactions, you are asked to provide your own username and password. Once your account has activated, you can log in to the site at any time and see different levels of content based on your current ACAA membership status. Non members can see their event records and update their profiles only. If you have forgotten your username or password, there are two links on the login form that allow you to receive/reset these items without needing assistance from the office.
Once you have successfully logged in, you can perform the following functions. Manage your contact details and profile by going to https://access.asn.au/your-account/your-profile and using the edit profile button. All site users can update their username, password, email address and contact details. ACAA members can update the information shown in the ACAA directories and the ACAA mentoring program. Different levels of membership have access to different levels of information and not all information can be seen until you press the edit profile button.
