The Learning Centre for Senior Living (TLC) is ASCHA’s online learning portal. It is available to all ASCHA's Regular Members as a value-added member benefit. Currently, the vast majority of members are using TLC for their employees’ training. With industry standards constantly evolving, operators need to stay on top of training and compliance to offer the best possible services to their residents. The Learning Centre helps our members keep up with the Alberta Occupational Health & Safety, Continuing Care Health Service Standards (CCHSS), and Accommodation Standards training requirements without taking a lot of time away from what they do best – taking care of residents/tenants.

The tutorials are concise to make learning more efficient, and they are respectful of limited training time. Employees can watch the tutorials at their own pace and choose when and where to complete their training activities. The content has been developed in partnership with sector specific educators, ASCHA Members, and subject matter experts to ensure the information is both current and relevant.
An online library is available to each member organization to house their own organizational policies, procedures, and training materials.
