Following the WILful Together Conference in May 2024, a post-event survey was distributed to conference participants. ACE-WIL members have highlighted interest in future PD events focused on the following:
|
- Sharing best practices of how to use GenAI in our day-to-day work supporting WIL, and
- Emerging WIL risks and developing best practices, such as fake job postings and application processes; sexualized violence; international students & co-op work permits in short-term placements, and work safe insurance.
|
The ACE-WIL Professional Development (PD) team greatly values your input in helping guide our yearly PD events. Thank you for completing the survey!

International Journal of Work-Integrated Learning: Expressions of Interest
While literature on student voice in WIL exists, with some focus on program design and implementation from institutional perspectives, the vital student voice is overlooked too often.
|
In recognition of the need to understand and prioritize students' perspectives in the discourse of quality WIL, the International Journal of Work-Integrated Learning (IJWIL) invites Expressions of Interest (EOI) for a forthcoming Special Issue in IJWIL, titled "Student Voice in WIL".
The types of papers accepted will include:
|
- Reports on original research,
- Scholarly discussion/positioning papers, and
- Detailed case studies of novel good practice with an emphasis on including student voice.
|
Visit ijwil.org for details. To submit your EOI, complete this form by October 4, 2024.
