Canadian Society for Industrial & Organizational Psychology
STUDENT I/O SYMPOSIUM @ CPA 2025
Canadian Psychology Association (CPA) is hosting its 2025 convention in St. John’s, Newfoundland from June 12th to 14th of 2025.
Each year, we organize a symposium to show off the wonderful research projects and skills of Canadian IO students. Students from different programs across Canada are encouraged to submit their ideas, and 3-4 papers will be selected for the convention! We usually keep the theme broad as the quality of the submissions is much more important than the topic for us. This is a great opportunity to showcase your research to the I/O Psychology community in Canada!
CPA's deadline is December 3rd if you plan to make individual submissions. If you are interested in taking part in this English symposium, the internal deadline is November 8th, 2024 by 11:59 Eastern. You’re encouraged to reach out to me before the deadline so I can gauge interest. Please send your abstract (250 words) to Jane Philips at studentrep@csiop-scpio.ca using the following format:
Background/Theory/Rationale:
Methods:
Results:
Conclusions/Action/Impact:
In addition, if any French-speaking students are interested in being connected for a session, I would be happy to do so! Though I don't speak French myself, I think it would be a great initiative if there is interest :)
Email CSIOP the student representaive, Jane Philips, if you have questions! More information about CPA 2025 can be found here. I’ll be in touch closer to the convention about student social/mentorship events and student awards.

CSIOP EDI Commitment Statement
CSIOP wants to make the work and lives of people from different backgrounds better by setting equity, diversity, and
inclusion (EDI) goals. CSIOP wants to make sure everyone feels welcome and valued. Our work applies to workers,
researchers, students, and Industrial and Organizational Psychology professionals.
CSIOP commits to improving the physical and mental well-being of all people by:
Making sure Industrial and Organizational Psychology is fair and welcoming to everyone, no matter their background,
Learning from and helping people who face unfair treatment because of differences, in research, at work, and across Canada,
Learning from and working with Indigenous Peoples (in Canada; First Nations, Métis, and Inuit). CSIOP has very few Indigenous members, so we want to build relationships with Indigenous Peoples to better achieve our mission, and
Thinking hard about how our field can help make a better, fairer future for everyone.
By making these promises, CSIOP strives to create a future where everyone can be happy, healthy, and safe at work.
Thank you for your interest in our work. We welcome your comments and questions. Please do not hesitate to reach out to the co-chairs of the EDI Committee: Aisha Taylor at ataylor@taylor-madestrategies.com and Rachel Appiah at appiahr@uoguelph.ca
