Planning for Cannexus, Canada's National Career Development Conference, in January 2023, is now underway. Cannexus23 is expected to be a hybrid conference with a live in-person and virtual portion. More information about the format and schedule will be available in the coming months. The dates for the conference are January 23-25, 2023.
CERIC invites individuals or organizations with an interest in presenting at the 17th annual Cannexus to submit a brief session outline for consideration using the Proposal Form and encourages you to inform colleagues or students of this opportunity.
Submitting a proposal is not a commitment to present at the conference. If you submit a proposal and you are selected to present, you will receive a formal email invitation by the summer – with further details on session type, duration and whether in-person or virtual – and at that time you will be given a deadline to accept or decline the invitation.
Submission Deadline
Your submission must be received no later than 11:59 pm ET, Friday, June 17, 2022 to be considered for inclusion in the Cannexus23 conference program. Any late proposals will be automatically added to a wait-list for consideration if spots become available.
