Fall Conference 2026 Bursary Application Form

Thank you for your interest in coming to COEO's Fall Conference.

Here is the process for our bursary application.

1) Fill Out This Form: Here we will ask about what kind of financial support we can offer you so that you are able to make it to the conference this year. You don't need to explain why you need the money - we're working on the honour system here.

2) You'll Hear From Us About How Much Financial Support We Can Offer: We have a limited amount of funds available to help folks come to each conference. Depending on the number of applicants, we will do our absolute best to give you the amount you need to come to the conference.

3) Register: When we let you know how much financial support we can offer you, we will also provide you with information on how to register.

4) See you at the conference: We hope to see you at Camp Muskoka from September 25-27, 2026.

Bursary applications will remain open until September 9th. We will start letting early bursary applicants know what funding we can provide them starting August 1st.
