Every spring, the Editors' Association of Canada holds a national conference, featuring sessions presented by knowledgeable speakers, workshops and a banquet featuring the presentation of the Tom Fairley Award for Editorial Excellence, the Claudette Upton Scholarship, the President's Awards and the Lee d'Anjou Volunteer of the Year Award. Other special events include the annual general meeting (AGM), at which voting members cast their ballots on various association motions.

The conference is open to members and non-members alike (except for the annual general meeting, which is a members-only event). Enjoy professional development seminars, take advantage of networking opportunities, renew old acquaintances and make new ones. It's always a full weekend, with something for everyone.
