Program 2014

The Program will be presented principally in English though there will be two bilingual PD Sessions. Notre Programme.

For our 2014 Program we have maintained the format established for all Fairs since 2010 and have combined Keynote Speakers, Panel discussions and Professional Development sessions into a single day that will have something for everyone seeking professional development and fulfillment. All available speaker bios and abstracts will be linked to our Speakers page on this website located under OPSQF 2014 on the top menu. Similarly, all available presentations will be linked to the speakers’ listing on the Speakers page. 

After the event, look for ” Presentation ” with a link to the Panel, PD Sessions and Lifetime Achievement Award presentations. Depending upon your Internet connection, some presentations may take some time to download for viewing or retention.

Notes:

  1. Due to some organizational changes at Excellence Canada, Steve Davies is no longer their Executive Director for the NCR. Excellence Canada remains a committed Supporter of the Fair. We wish to thank Steve for his contributions to our events since January, 2012.
  2. The details in this program are correct at time of publication, and routinely updated.  We work to keep changes to a minimum, and will inform attendees and supporters of pending substantial changes.
  3. This Program is complete.
