Each year, a new board takes the helm of IABC Edmonton. This generally includes some veterans alongside some newbies. Individually managing one of several portfolios, the board also comes together each month to share, discuss and collaborate around a shared goal of providing our local chapter members with news and resources, special and professional development events and networking opportunities.
This section is dedicated to updates from the board. Be sure to check back regularly for the latest chapter news.
If you have a general inquiry for the board, contact us.
For more specific questions, feel free to email board members directly. They’re all just regular people—as regular as we business communicators can be—and are always happy to help!
