General International Seating Symposium Information
Due to the loss of our conference partner, IPCE, and the uncertain times, Sunny Hill Health Centre has made the difficult decision to cancel the International Seating Symposium in Vancouver for March 2022. The future format and way forward for ISS Vancouver is still under discussion. More information will be forthcoming.
As the directors of ISS Vancouver Sunny Hill Health Centre would like to inform everyone that we are losing our long time management firm and partner, Interprofessional Continuing Education (IPCE). We are saddened by this development. We have had a very long and positive relationship with IPCE. We want to thank IPCE for our many years of collaboration in making the ISS such a successful symposium. The following is a statement from IPCE:
“It is with heavy hearts that we inform you, due to circumstances beyond our control, Interprofessional Continuing Education (IPCE) is winding down all operations. We want to acknowledge and thank everyone who has been involved with IPCE initiatives over the years for their efforts and commitment to IPCE and the communities they served beyond UBC. This includes committee members, exhibitors, financial contributors and attendees; thank you all for your support of our initiatives over the years. It has been a privilege to serve you, and your communities, and we wish you all the best in your future endeavors.”
