The Theme for CIRPA-ACPRI 2019 is “THE CIRCUS OF IR: EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED”.

 

In a circus, exciting and zany acts are orchestrated, one followed by another – much like a typical day in Institutional Research! Surprises are always unfolding as discoveries are shared with audiences, yet careful planning and preparation goes on behind the scenes in the world of IR.

CIRPA-ACPRI welcomes all submissions relevant to the profession of Institutional Research and Planning (IRP), including proposals from professionals in the field of IRP; from colleagues at provincial, regional and federal agencies, other associations and organizations, as well as from individual scholars with research interests in post-secondary education issues.

Click here for the submission guidelines and review criteria (click here for the French version). Please complete all proposals using the proposal template (click here for the English version and here for the French version).

Submissions are encouraged to align with conference theme and one or more of the following topic areas and should include realized or potential outcomes (i.e. how research has affected or will affect change?):

  • Ringmasters
  • Magicians
  • Fortunetellers
  • Acrobats

 The deadline to submit a proposal(s) is May 19, 2019. Submit your proposal(s) via email to the Programming Committee (cirpa2019@gmail.com).

We hope to see you in Montreal this October.
