Alinity: A Best in Class Registrant Management System

Alinity Regulatory Authority Management System (“Alinity”) is a best in class, secure, comprehensive cloud-based software solution that was created specifically for health care regulators. Alinity is owned by Softworks Group Inc., a privately held Canadian corporation that was established in 1990.

Currently, Alinity is being used by over 45 Canadian health care regulators.

The College is committed to investing in information technology to build operational efficiencies that support us in achieving our mandate: to serve and protect the public interest. This registrant management system allows the College to leverage better technology to deliver on a more efficient registrant experience. 

iMIS was the College’s registrant management system. Alinity has now replaced iMIS. Your CRNM Profile has been transferred to Alinity, where all interactions with your CRNM Profile will now take place.

All registrants will need to set up a new password to access their CRNM Profile on Alinity. The College will email registrants directions on how to do so to your email address that is linked to your CRNM profile. You can also access the CRNM Profile on Alinity login page and use the Forgot Password link to recover your password.

Registrants are reminded that they do not need to create a new account in Alinity. If you are having difficulty logging in, please contact us/interact with us on Live Chat.

Applicants who had an application in process prior to the transition to Alinity do not need to create a new application and/or resubmit information that has already been received. An email was sent to all applicants in process who may be affected by this change. If you have questions regarding your application, please contact registration@crnm.mb.ca, and if you are having difficulties logging in, please contact info@crnm.mb.ca.

The College uploaded tutorials/user guides to the Resource Library (which are also listed below the FAQs) to ensure you can re-establish your login credentials and use Alinity for registration rewewal, as well as other key tasks.

Yes, all of your information is safe and secure in Alinity.  Alinity is encrypted via SSL – secure sockets layer – and is behind a VPN connection so it is inaccessible from any outside influences. The servers for Alinity and file shares are all separated from each other, and configuration files are encrypted.

Your password will also be encrypted. So, you are the only one who will have access to your password. Alinity uses Two-Factor Authentication. This default feature detects a new login, and once detected, you will be prompted to enter a code that will be emailed to you, to access your CRNM profile.

The College takes protecting your information seriously. We are governed under the RHPA and abide by our responsibilities and duties clearly outlined in this legislation around Confidentiality and Collecting and Sharing Information.

Yes, your information was secured as it was transferred into Alinity. When the transfer of information was completed, the import of all data was done via secure connection.

We also use authentication to prevent unauthorized access to the database copy and all data is encrypted while it is being transferred.

The new version of Nurse Check continues to allow for timely and effectively verification of whether a person providing services as a registered nurse, registered nurse (nurse practitioner), graduate nurse or graduate nurse practitioner in Manitoba is registered with the College of Registered Nurses of Manitoba and whether there are any conditions or restrictions on that nurse’s practice. It also provides important information about a registrant’s registration history, disciplinary history and employer contact information.

Please note that invoices/transactions dated August 31, 2023 and earlier will temporarily not be visible for applicants or registrants while we reconcile historical financial information. Once this process is completed, we will post an announcement on CRNM Profile.
