Get Involved

CBIE offers members various opportunities to get involved, share their expertise, take on leadership roles on timely topics, and help inform priorities and responses to key issues in international education.

CBIE’s work is grounded in the expertise and engagement of its members. Practitioners and professionals from across the country and all levels of education play a vital role in shaping dialogue, sharing insights, and contributing to a strong, diverse, and sustainable international education sector in Canada.

Whether you are looking to contribute to strategic discussions, collaborate with peers, or take on a leadership role, there are several ways you can get involved.

Participation in a PLC typically requires a time commitment of approximately 4 to 10 hours per month, depending on the focus and activities of the group.

The application process will open in the fall.

Applications must be submitted by Monday, November 2, 2026.
