As an employer, you can choose to give your Benefits Advisor limited access to the benefits module of your company’s Collage account. This access will enable your Advisor to view and edit employees enrolled in the company benefits and assist you with benefits-related matters if/when it’s needed.

Note: If your company enables Single Sign On (SSO) in Collage, then your Advisor will NOT be able to access using their current email. They will need a new email setup with your company’s email provider.
