Hi Caroline,

Excellent question! Alberta’s reciprocity agreement with Utah only allows you to bypass their education requirements to get a license and work in Alberta. In order to legally complete transactions in Alberta, you will still need to qualify for Alberta’s licensure requirements.

Here’s a quick step by step guide for Americans seeking to become licensed in Alberta. https://www.recbc.ca/licensing/jurisdiction.html#US

If you still need help with the process, reach out to Alberta’s education and licensing officer:
