The Canadian Psychological Association's (CPA's) 82nd Annual National Convention is going virtual!
While we do not know for how long COVID-19 will remain a public health emergency in Canada, we do know that at this time, restrictions continue to exist regarding in-person gatherings of more than 50 attendees, where proper physical distancing measures would be difficult to implement and maintain. Accordingly, the CPA has taken the decision to cancel our in-person 82nd CPA Annual National Convention scheduled for June 4th - 6th, 2021, in Ottawa, ON, inclusive of all pre-convention workshops that would occur on June 3rd and pivot, once again, to a virtual event from June 7th - 25th.
We have made this decision based on the guidance and directives of experts and governments, and out of concern for the safety and well-being of our members and affiliates, attendees, staff, public and the various teams that support the annual convention. With the benefit of time to plan, we are excited and confident in our ability to plan a fabulous virtual event.
If you have chosen to participate in the 82nd Annual National Convention Virtual Event you may submit to virtually present in any of the listed presentations below:
- Poster Presentations: Poster (with optional narration)
- Spoken Individual Presentations: Snapshots (5-minutes); 12-minute talks (12 minutes); Conversation Sessions (25 minutes); Review Session (25 minutes).
- Spoken Group Presentations: Panel Discussions (55 minutes); Symposium (55 minutes)
- Workshops: Standard Workshop (85 minutes); Pre-Convention Professional Development Workshops (- 3-Hour/3-CE Credit);Pre-Convention Professional Development Workshops (-6-Hour/6-CE Credit)
From here you will be able to submit an abstract for consideration in the scientific program of the CPA's 82nd Annual National Convention Virtual Event.
