Share Your Insights in CAUBO’s Trend Talks Series
Submissions as part of this first series of content selections will be accepted until
November 22, 2024, at 5:00 pm (ET).
Does your organization have a pulse on emerging domestic or global trends that are expected to have a substantive impact on the Canadian higher education administration sector, be it at the institutional or functional administrative level?
If so, we encourage you to submit a proposal for the 2025 CAUBO Trend Talk series.
CAUBO is currently accepting proposals from Canadian and international associations, industry experts, consultants as well as private sector firms to participate in our pilot project: Trend Talks to be scheduled throughout 2025.
This pilot project stems from one of the strategies outlined in CAUBO’s 2023-2028 Strategic Plan launched in September 2023.
To proactively capture and disseminate trends that will shape the future of higher education administration,
to enable the early development of forward-thinking solutions.
In support of this strategy, CAUBO is aiming to broaden the range of information sources (external to the association membership; Canadian and beyond; within and outside the sector; etc.) for early identification of issues and opportunities that will have a substantive impact on the higher education administrative sector.
Trends will be shared with members through a series of virtual events, titled Trend Talks.
These presentations may take the form of Ted Talks, webinars, lunch & learns, podcasts, interviews etc.). CAUBO, in conjunction with the presenters from the selected submissions, will determine the ideal format based on the content and audience. This is not a fee-based opportunity. There will be no reimbursement of costs.
For a proposal to be considered, the trend needs to:
- Be new/emerging – not already on the radar of the majority of CAUBO members.
- Be expected to have an immediate or future impact on higher education administration.
This connection/application must be illustrated within the proposal. - Impact a broad segment of CAUBO’s institutional membership (relevant to small or large, undergraduate, or research-intensive institutions, etc.).
- Affect the university as a whole or a specific functional area. This should be specified within the proposal.
- Be of national relevance (not only specific to a handful of provinces).
