Greetings from the OCIf you are reading this, you’ve registered for AIESEC Canada’s National Congress 2013 (NC 2013). Congrats, you’ve made an excellent choice! We are very excited to welcome you to Edmonton, AB, where this year’s NC 2013 is going to be hosted!
NC 2013 is a five-day conference taking place from December 30, 2012 to January 3, 2013. This year, we are expecting 300 delegates across Canada, several Alumni members, and tons of business leaders from the local community. Throughout the conference, there will be various hands-on workshops and seminars that will assist you in developing leadership skills. After all, we strongly believe that AIESEC members are both the leaders of today and tomorrow. In addition, the AIESEC Canada 2013/2014 President is also elected at NC 2013. This means that YOU get to decide who will lead AIESEC Canada into the future.
Whether this is your first or tenth AIESEC conference, the OC wants to make sure that you are having an incredible experience from the beginning to the end. This is an one-of-a-kind opportunity to share your personal experiences with AIESEC members and learn things from others as well.
The OC has been working hard to plan this conference for several months, and we are counting down the days until we finally get to see you! We are here to make sure you are making the best out of your experience at NC 2013. Please feel free to approach us during the conference if you have any questions or if you’d just like to talk!
