Conference 2025 Turning Challenges into Opportunities: Continuous Improvement in an Era of Change
2025-04-10 08:00 - 18:30 UTC | New York Tech Vancouver, 2925 Virtual Way, Vancouver, BC, V5M 4X5, Canada
The conference will be held at the New York Tech Vancouver campus on April 10, 2025 and is open to academics, students, education administrators, professionals, and industry stakeholders whose works are based on and can broaden our understanding of the conference theme. Students at the bachelor’s- and graduate-levels are particularly invited to share their work.

Building on the success of the last PDGIA conference in 2023, our next event will focus on higher education in an era of multiple changes and crises. These include global conflict, climate change, political polarization, demographic and labour market challenges, ongoing housing supply problems, and more. The 2025 conference will explore emerging best practices in post-secondary education of particular interest to independent, degree-granting institutions in British Columbia and beyond.
