COPA and CHPTA’s online learning event Making Waves will now take place in January-February 2022. The event will follow the same format and keep its talented line-up of speakers. 

Janice Gross Stein will start things off on January 13, 2022 with a keynote address on the Post-Pandemic New Normal for the Canada-U.S. Relationship. Speakers will continue presenting into mid-February on Tuesday or Thursday each week. So far, COPA has lined up nine speakers to address ten different topics that we know will make a difference in your business. 

“The COPA and CHPTA event planning team has been working very hard on this event, focusing primarily on getting an outstanding list of professionals and experts who can speak directly to the challenges and opportunities facing our industry,” states Sam Moncada. 

“I understand that we all may be experiencing some ‘Zoom fatigue’, but this online format has made it possible for our members to access highly regarded expertise at a very affordable rate,” continued Moncada. “We want every single one of our members to get this information because we know it will make a difference in how they approach key decision-making in these very uncertain times.” 

A full conference pass for COPA members is $300.00 and provides access to all 10 sessions, as well as any new sessions that may be added later on. If you prefer, you can also register for individual sessions which are $75 or $150 per person.
