Conference registration with the corresponding model (in-person or virtual) is required.

The Career Retreat is open to all associate professors.  Women and BIPOC members are particularly encouraged to apply.

Please apply here no later than March 10, 2022 Notification will be sent by March 14.  Space is limited to 25 participants.

Questions about the Career Retreat can be directed in email to Cheryl Geisler, cgeisler@sfu.ca.  See you there!
