PGIA In-Person Events Cancelled Until Further Notice Due to COVID

The PGIA has decided to voluntarily cancel all in-person meetings and events to help Albertans counter the spread of the COVID-19 virus. With Intensive Care Units operating at near capacity in Alberta, we feel it is prudent and in the best interest of our members to forego planned in-person events until further notice.

We hope to be back on track in the near future and will be monitoring the COVID situation closely.

We look forward to resuming our planned schedule of events later this year or in early 2022. Upcoming events will posted on our websites at https://pgia.ca/events

Thank you for your continued support.

Here are the responses we received, ranked in order of importance to our members.

1. Print markets projected to grow into 2021 and beyond.
2. Website security – what hackers want and how to protect yourself.
3. Strategic Planning – What it is? Why you need it? How to get started.
