A Glimpse into Our Schedule
While IFSCCC is rooted in the Canadian community, our circle extends far beyond borders.
No matter where you’re joining from, we warmly welcome you to join us in this shared space of learning and connection. We’re intentionally creating a gathering that brings together a global community of voices, experiences, and perspectives—because truly, the more, the merrier!
-
We’re delighted to share that the IFS Canadian Community Conference (IFSCCC) has been approved for 8.5 Internal Family Systems (IFS) Continuing Education (CE) credits. As part of our commitment to supporting your ongoing learning and growth, all attendees will receive a Certificate of Completion reflecting their total hours attended. This may be used toward IFS Certification or Recertification. We encourage you to keep your certificate for your records.
Please note: Specific CEUs for American and other international learners will not be provided.
-
Some sessions will be recorded for replay, and some will not (a number of presenters have chosen to keep their sessions unrecorded). We’ll clearly indicate recorded vs live-only sessions in the final schedule.
For sessions that are recorded:
By attending, participants are providing their consent to be included in the recording. You can always control how you appear by choosing your level of participation. For example, keeping your camera off, using audio only, or engaging through chat rather than speaking on video.We may make some recorded sessions more widely available for purchase in the future as part of our ongoing fundraising efforts towards an in-person 2027 conference.
IFSCCC offers a wide range of learning threads across both days. Clinical, experiential, community-rooted, leadership, and culturally grounded work. This overview groups the workshop titles by theme to help you browse quickly, then explore details in the full program.
