ACCA is excited to extend a warm and enthusiastic invitation to the much-anticipated 2023 ACCA Annual Co-operative Conference, set to take place from November 6th to 8th against the vibrant backdrop of Edmonton, AB. This annual co-operative conference, known for sparking meaningful dialogues, forging connections, and kindling actionable inspiration, is poised to do so once again, all under the compelling banner of this year's theme: "It Starts with Us."

We are looking for a grounded person with strong critical analysis to join our team as a DEI Practitioner.

In honour of co-op week and a strong desire to put the 6th Co-operative Principle in action, ACCESS invites ACCA Members to learn more about shared services and how shared services can help build community through collaboration.

What if capacity could be built through a managed shared services model? Imagine access to relevant, reliable and relatable industry professionals who understand the needs and pressures you face.
