- The College of Opticians of Alberta (COA) is the body that regulates opticians in Alberta (AB). This authority is derived from the Health Professions Act and Opticians Profession Regulations. Under sections 33-34 of the Health Professions Act, the COA must maintain a register of individuals who are regulated by the College. The register helps the public confirm that a person who is providing optician services in AB is registered with the COA. This information is not for or intended to be used for any other purpose, including marketing or research. The COA makes an effort to ensure that all of the information on this website is accurate and complete.
