- Renew (or purchase) your CSSE membership. The person submitting each proposal must have a current CSSE membership valid until the end of the conference. Your membership is not your registration for the conference. Registration for CSSE will open in January.
- Access the submission platform. Submitters will be directed to the submission platform from within the members’ portal. The submission platform and members’ portal are separate websites with separate login information. Only current members may access the submission platform.
- Upload your proposal and supporting details to the submission platform. Proposals must be received before the submission deadline. Proposals sent by any other means will be not accepted.
Types of Presentations
CSSE features multiple session formats that are intended to reflect the diversity of research and scholarship in education. Submitters should select the format that best reflects the goals of their proposal.
When submitting your proposal, you will be asked to indicate whether you would like to present your work in person at the host institution (during the main conference days) or online via Zoom (during the online session day). Unless selected for an online presentation, all authors should be prepared to attend and present in-person. We appreciate that authors’ personal and professional circumstances may shift the format(s) you are able to participate in. We will accommodate as many requests as we are able to support, and look forward to welcoming everyone to this year’s conference.
For further details, please review the full Call for Proposals.

Please note that we cannot accommodate change requests based on presenters’ individual schedules.
Commitment to bilingualism
As a bilingual association, CSSE is committed to showcasing the work of scholars in English, French, or the language(s) of our authors’ work and research. Multilingual research and presentations reflect the diversity of our community and our scholarship, and we hope that you take the opportunity to engage with colleagues in these spaces.
As you read this year’s program, please take special note of sessions tagged as Bilingual / Bilingue, which indicate that at least one paper in the session includes bilingual content. Bilingual content may include presentations, slides, or discussion questions in multiple languages, based on presenter comfort level and needs of each session.
