Showcase 2022: Call for Proposals Deadline Extended!

Wednesday, March 16, 2022

Due to several extension requests for campus partners to collaborate, the deadline for submissions of proposal abstracts is now Monday, March 14th, 2022. So, if you have been thinking about a proposal but unsure about the timing, you just got more time!

The Continuous Improvement, Change Management, and Project and Portfolio Management communities are excited to announce that we will be hosting our 3rd annual Showcase event on campus on the morning of Thursday, May 26, 2022 and are seeking proposals.

The Showcase is a free, half-day long in-person event that brings campus colleagues together to share best practices, successes, and connect. It will feature poster exhibits and poster flash talks—all centred around ideas and practices that contribute to continuous improvement, change management, and project management. The Showcase is open to all employees and students. Should public health measures change, the event will be hosted virtually on Microsoft Teams.
