Membership for Dummies


Membership for Dummies
by the AACA

(But you’re not dumb, by the way).
This is a five-minute process—I promise.

What you’ll accomplish: purchase the right membership, claim your company, and—if eligible—post a job.

Before You Start

Use one browser for the entire company-verification process. Do not switch to another browser or open the verification link on another device; that can make the system go wonky.

1. Purchase Your Membership

Go to ATLACA.org, the new home of the Atlanta Air Cargo Association.

1.     Open Membership from the main menu.

2.     Choose the appropriate membership: Regular, Affiliate, Individual, or Student.

3.     Complete your purchase.

·Job-posting eligibility: Only Regular and Affiliate members may post jobs.

Save Your AACA Member ID

After purchasing, you will receive an email receipt. The order number on that receipt is your AACA Member ID.

EXAMPLE:  AACA-1001

Keep this number handy. If you misplace it, email admin@atlaca.org for help.

2. Claim Your Company

Do this whether or not you plan to post a job. The AACA membership list and job board are connected, so claiming your company completes your setup in the system.

1.     Go to jobs.atlaca.org.

2.     Select Sign Up at the top right of the page.

3.     Enter your email address and follow the prompts.

4.     Open the verification email in the same browser where you started, then click the verification link.

5.     When you reach the employer/company dashboard, confirm that the claim shows Email Verified.

6.     Search for your company name, select it, and enter your verified email address when prompted.

7.     Review and update your company details, then save them.

How Email Verification Works

·If your email address uses the same domain as your company website, approval should happen automatically when you click the verification link.

·If you use Gmail, iCloud, or another address that does not match the company domain, your request will go into the administrator’s approval box. It will be accepted after it is reviewed.

You’re almost done! Your company should now be set up for the AACA membership list and ready to post a job, if your membership type is eligible.

3. Post a Job

AACA’s job board is for Atlanta-based or remote jobs only.

1.     Go to Post a Job on the main menu.

2.     Enter your company information.

3.     Enter your AACA Member ID in the AACA Member ID box. Remember: this is the order number from your membership receipt, such as AACA-1001.

4.     Complete each section with the details for your job opening.

5.     Review the listing and save it.

That’s It!

If you are still with me, congratulations—your company is set up in the AACA system. The instructions look long because they explain every click, but the full process should take about five minutes
