Our Periodic Events: Master Classes – Workshops

Master Classes

Master classes are training activities offered by experts in a field. They cover innovative concepts and are focused on practical application. Master classes last 1.5 hours. The first hour is dedicated to the presentation, and 20 to 30 minutes are reserved for discussions and exchanges. Master classes take place on the 3rd Tuesday of the month at 12:00 PM (Eastern Time). They are offered on the Zoom platform with simultaneous English-French interpretation.

Workshops 

Workshops primarily focus on practice exchange and discussions among participants. Workshops are mostly presented by association members who have completed an interesting project they wish to share. Workshops last 1.5 hours. The first half-hour is dedicated to presenting the practice of interest, and the rest of the activity is dedicated to exchanges. Workshops take place on the 3rd Thursday of the month at 12:00 PM (Eastern Time) on the Zoom platform.

Our occasional events: All for One, Panel, and Public Place

Throughout the year, emerging themes lead to the organization of more occasional events to which members are invited to participate. Feel free to suggest ideas to explore, projects to analyze, or discussions to hold!

All for One

All for One events allow for exchanges, obtaining advice, or validating approaches within the framework of a specific project. Held in a conversational mode, they aim for co-construction of skills and co-development among members. All for One events are offered as needed.

Panel

Panel events bring together 2 to 4 experts in a field to exchange approaches and viewpoints to broaden the perspective on a particular theme. Panel events are offered as needed.

Public Place 

When strategic, general, or collective interest questions arise, ACCP-CAID schedules a Public Place event to gather viewpoints from all members. Public Place events are offered as needed.
