Given the current environment, and the challenges traveling to and from the U.S., we have made the difficult decision to cancel the in-person component of the 54th Annual Canadian Employee Benefits Conference as well as its affiliated preconference sessions, scheduled to take place in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The virtual conference will continue and will be held Monday through Wednesday: November 22, 23, 24, and November 29, 30 and December 1, 2021. Watch this page for details on the virtual event, which will feature a robust agenda highlighting need-to-know issues for trustees and administrators.
