The mixer itself runs for an hour. After that, feel free to stay and enjoy the venue; grab some food, or take advantage of free refills on juices and tap drinks.

Bringing a travel buddy to Montreal? No problem! They’re welcome to join you too. Let's make connections that could last well beyond the conference.

SOTL CoP 2026/2027: A Year in Preview

Thursday, October 1, 2026

10 AM PT / 11 AM MT / 12 PM CT / 1 PM ET / 2 PM AT / 2:30 PM NT

Last year, pharmacology educators from across Canada met four times to learn and discuss the basics of SoTL inquiry, shared hurdles, and dissemination. This year we are forming working groups so your project keeps moving.

Come whether you published this year, started your first project, or still wonder if your teaching question counts as scholarship. Each one is a good place to begin.

In the opening session, we will:

share the planned session lineup for 2026/2027
introduce the working groups and how to join one

If you were with us last year, bring your colleague. If this is your first time, you are arriving at a good moment.
