Thinking Outside the Box
STAN 2024 • Virtual Conference • February 27-29, 2024
Join us in February 2024 for three days of
professional development and networking opportunities.
This year’s STAN Conference theme, Thinking Outside the Box, will invite participants to challenge the status quo. We will consider questions such as: What practices need to change in order to center equity and sustainability? What beliefs do we need to revisit to keep up with the changing face of education? How can we harness technology to drive innovation and radical change in a resource-constrained sector?
We invite you to join us at the 2024 Science & Technology Awareness Network (STAN) Annual Conference, which will be held primarily virtually. We hope to welcome over 150 delegates from across the country. The three-day Conference will include a mix of invited and member-proposed sessions, engaging and interactive sessions, panels, and keynote speakers. Opportunities to network with your Canadian peers will be offered throughout the program. STAN’s Annual General Meeting will be built into the proceedings.

STAN's mission is to connect members so they have a shared platform for sharing their stories, trouble-shoot issues collectively, discuss best practices to enrich the national STEM culture. With your experience and expertise, we can jointly develop a unique conference experience.
In order to support the growth and development of both attendees and the field at large, STAN encourages the development of session proposals that keep science literacy at heart. We are hoping to create a vision of the future of Canadian STEM.
