Conferences

The BCAMT is proud to be a part of BC’s “PSA Day” in which Provincial Specialist Associations organize professional learning opportunities that take place on the provincial professional development day each October.

Every third year, it’s BC’s turn to host the Northwest Mathematics Conference and so our Fall Conference serves a dual role in these years, with attendees coming from across BC, Washington, Oregon, and beyond!

UPCOMING CONFERENCE

We are excited to be meeting in person for our Fall Conference which will take place in Surrey, BC (Guildford Park Secondary) on October 20, 2023. Our theme is Learning Mathematics: It’s Relational! We are also offering a virtual option for those who are unable to travel to Surrey. Stay tuned for a link to our conference website coming soon which will have more information (registration, featured speakers, etc).

We are now accepting proposals for in-person workshops for our fall conference to take place in Surrey, BC on October 20, 2023.

We invite you to share your teaching practices with your colleagues from across the province! The theme of this year’s conference is Learning Mathematics: It’s Relational! Special consideration will be given to workshops that will help teachers build relationships, both mathematical and interpersonal.

To submit your workshop proposal you will need to complete a short form. In addition to a workshop title and description, you will be asked to select the grade band(s) of your intended audience, to include a short biography, and to upload a photo (optional).

The deadline to submit a proposal is May 31, 2023.

Proposals will be reviewed in June. Applicants will be informed of the status of their proposals by June 30. If accepted, the lead speaker will receive complimentary registration to our conference.
