Benefits Overview

Important information about new group benefits providers

The university is moving to new providers for your group benefits in 2027. Your benefit plans are not changing, they will be administered and delivered by new partners.

We encourage you to visit the Benefits Provider Transition webpage for more information, including FAQs and benefit categories and timelines. The provider transition will begin this fall and conclude in April 2027.

The University of Alberta provides eligible employees with benefit programs to support you and your family’s well-being as an important part of your compensation package.

Program eligibility and levels of coverage vary depending on your appointment. Find more information by clicking on the staff type associated with your appointment:
