Background and Context
The Social Sector hosts a yearly ELCC conference for front-line workers, managers, and supervisors, collectively called educators. The conference serves as a professional development opportunity while also offering cultural experiences, networking, and updates from government and provincial territorial organizations.
This year, the COO 2025 ELCC conference will be held on October 2-3, 2025, in Toronto. The conference aims to host 200 attendees in a hybrid format. Offering a virtual component allows participation for those unable to attend due to staff shortages, emergencies, accommodations or other factors. Offering an in-person component allows for more vibrant networking and collaboration.
