The QRCA Conference Speaker Team is looking for the “crème de la crème” of speakers for our 2012 Montreal Conference.
Our theme this year is “Immerse Yourself” - in new ideas and perspectives which can transform attendees both personally and professionally, and in the “fun” that QRCA conferences always offer.

Members can head on over to the Forum’s 2012 Conference Idea Salon > Speaker Topics to get feedback on an idea they have, to find someone to partner with, or to just look around at what ideas other members say would be of interest to them. (And it’s not too late to post ideas! If you’re not interested in presenting, but have an idea in mind, please post it.)
Each speaker/speaker team receives one complimentary conference registration, which is another great reason to consider submitting a proposal.
