Corporate Officer Forum
November 25-27, 2026
Westin Wall Centre, Richmond, BC
Attendance is reserved for Corporate Officers and Deputy Corporate Officers only.
Since 2006, this educational offering has focused on emerging trends and legal and legislative changes of relevance to BC local government Corporate Officers. If you’re a Corporate Officer, you know what it means to juggle legislation, leadership, and logistics—often all at once.
