Becoming
a Casino Advisor
Anyone seeking employment
as a Casino Advisor in a licensed casino facility in the province
of Alberta must be registered with Alberta Gaming and Liquor
Commission.
Casino Advisors are independent contractors who are contracted
by charitable organizations licensed to conduct a casino event.
There are three separate casino advisor positions: Cash Cage
Advisor; Count Room Advisor or Dual Advisor (combination of both
the Cash Cage and Count Room positions).
Prior to becoming registered as a Casino Advisor, the following
must be completed:
- Completion of
written exam administered by AGLC. Exams are normally held
twice a year in St. Albert, Calgary, Grande Prairie, Red Deer
and Lethbridge. Pre-registration is required for each exam
date. The Registration
Application for Casino Advisor Examination must be completed
and submitted with a $100 exam fee and a current security clearance
dated within the last three months provided by your local police
authority or RCMP. The exam will be based on the Casino
Terms and Conditions and Operating Guidelines (CTCOG) Sections
1 through 8, as well as the Gaming and Liquor Act, and Gaming
and Liquor Regulation. The noted material is available at the
link above.
- Upon successful
completion of the written exam, the applicant must complete
a training period within six months. It is the responsibility
of the applicant to locate and apprentice with a registered
casino advisor in order to complete the required training.
Please refer to CTCOG Section 6.3.5.
- In addition to the mandated training, the applicant will
be required to provide full financial disclosure information
administered by the Due Diligence Division of AGLC.
Once the training hours have been finalized and the due diligence
process completed, the applicant will be registered for a two
year term. For information on upcoming advisor exam dates, please
contact the Gaming Worker Registration section at 780-447-8600.
The next scheduled exam date is:
