ABOUT THE CONFERENCE
Staff and faculty members who advise undergraduate and graduate students will join together again for a day of professional development and community building at the seventhannual UBC Advising Conference. Participants will leave the conference with new ideas, skills, and connections.
The Conference Planning Committee is excited to bring together a dynamic program with keynote speaker Dr. Rob Hancock (Cree-Metis) who has worked in Indigenous student affairs since 2011, and is currently the LE,NONET Academic Manager in the Office of Indigenous Academic and Community Engagement at the University of Victoria. Dr. Hancock was part of the team (along with Ian Cull, Stephanie McKeown, Michelle Pidgeon, and Adrienne Vedan) responsible for creating the BCcampus Indigenization Guide for Front-line Staff, Student Services, and Advisors, and is currently working with an international, multidisciplinary group of scholar-practitioners to write the first-ever CAS Standards for Indigenous student affairs.
