The Undergraduate Biology Educators of Alberta normally meets in-person once a year at one of the various college and university campuses around our province. We also have regularly scheduled lunch and learns held virtually during the academic year.
Although the association has been meeting unofficially for many years, we became a registered society in 2013. With a new board structure in place and the opportunity to organize our finances, the UBEA has become more sustainable and stable. We look forward to continuing our work of supporting our teaching colleagues and sharing ideas and resources between our post-secondary institutions.
We are an inclusive organization: you need not be a biologist, professor, or from Alberta to join in the conversation. Anyone interested in promoting effective and engaging biology education is welcome (including students and post-doctoral fellows)! If you have any questions, ideas, or if you want to become a member, please contact one of the Executives below.
