Our 2026 Forum is rising this year in beautiful Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

Join us October 29–November 1 for an inspiring gathering of professionals, ideas, and connection.

THE PROGRAM:  The Forum Organizing Committee is accepting proposals for Pre-Forum Institutes (PFIs) and Workshops.

• PFIs are full-day, 6-hour sessions on Thursday, October 29th. These interactive courses are intended to provide participants with practical knowledge, new techniques and tools, and real-world examples that build their skills to advance their Collaborative Practice.

• Workshops are 3-hour OR 90-minutes sessions on Friday, October 30 and Saturday, October 31. They will offer best practices developed by Collaborative professionals around the world, with content ranging from foundational to advanced. Thought leaders will share their insight and wisdom on building successful Collaborative teams, serving clients, and expanding knowledge and access to Collaborative Practice.

Proposals are due by March 1.
