Academic Affairs Professionals Network

The Academic Affairs Professionals Network meeting series offers a welcoming and consistent opportunity for McGill's Academic Affairs Professionals to receive information, ask questions, and navigate pain points. Network members benefit from the input of guest speakers across campus who work in both administrative and academic units. 

Meetings are normally held online from 10:00 -11:30 a.m. on the last Tuesday of each month.

The series is hosted by the Academic Personnel Office.
