CSTM Virtual Education Days

July 16, 2025

Topic coming soon! 

CSTM is excited to host its next virtual education event on July 16, 2025, from 12:00 - 14:30 ET and once again offered simultaneously in both English and French.

The live event will offer presentations in both English and French. The English presentation and bilingual Q&A will be hosted in the main virtual event room. Attendees who want to view the French presentations will need to join the French breakout room when instructed, attendees will automatically be put back into the main room for the Q&A. Instructions for joining the breakout room will be provided at the event, however attendees can also use the chat feature to request assistance if needed.

Open to anyone - you do not need to be a CSTM member to attend.



*Reminder: previous virtual event recordings are now available in the members-only portal on the “education - webinars” page.

To provide more consistent, cost effective, educational sessions for those who can’t take full advantage of the Annual CSTM Conferences, the Board revised the Education Subcommittee Terms of Reference in 2023 to reflect the value of a central planning group and virtual delivery of those sessions.

The subcommittee aims to provide 2-4 events annually with at least one translated event. Topic suggestions from members for future sessions are welcome, please submit via an e-mail to [email protected].

Sign up for our monthly CSTM Communique email to get updates and registration information.

Recorded presentations from past events are posted in the CSTM members’ section of the website. Maintain your CE credits with access to these presentations.
