Info session: EURASHE study visit to Canada
16
Nov 2026
Online
13:00 – 14:00 CET
In spring 2027, EURASHE is organising a study visit to Canada to strengthen ties with its two affiliate members located there: Humber Polytechnic, located in Toronto (Ontario), and Southern Alberta Institute of Technology (SAIT), based in Calgary (Alberta).
During this info session we will go over the draft programme for the trip and answer questions from participants.
Participation is reserved for EURASHE members only.
In her 2026 State of the Union speech, Ursula von der Leyen announced that Canada will become the first associate member of the EU, strengthening an already existing collaboration at a much deeper level.
Though the exact meaning of ‘associate membership’ is not yet clear, EURASHE already holds strong ties with Canada through our two affiliate members: Humber Polytechnic, located in Toronto (Ontario), and Southern Alberta Institute of Technology (SAIT), based in Calgary (Alberta).
Within this context, EURASHE is happy to invite all the membership to an exciting and unique opportunity in spring 2027: a study visit to Canada to strengthen ties with these institutions.
