ORMTA In Sync

 
ORMTA In Sync is our 2-day, July event that features our Hybrid AGM, Awards Luncheon and Provincial Performance Competitions. This year, we will be hosting everything in Newmarket, Ontario (just a short drive from Toronto) on July 19th & 20th. Registration is available online and you can also purchase your tickets to the Provincial Competitions online in advance. Find information on hotels, travel, and everything else here. Register for the AGM or Awards Luncheon by June 21st.

Councillors Needed

 
ORMTA Provincial Council is comprised of dedicated ORMTA members that bring new insights and perspectives to our programs. They keep our association running so we can continue to offer opportunities for teachers and students. We are currently in need of members to join Council to fill important Zone Rep and portfolio positions!

The 2023 CFMTA Conference is now only a few days away! Join your colleagues in Edmonton from July 5th to 7th or register for available online sessions. There are numerous masterclasses, workshops, and many other special events that you don't want to miss.
