We provide the following services to our members:

Annual Conference
The Annual Conference is the first and most tangible benefit of CCA membership. This has become a de rigueur event for Canadian communication scholars, a convivial venue of scholarly exchange.

Networking
The CCA is the only network that brings together researchers interested in communication on a Canada-wide basis. Although we are primarily an association of academics, there is lots of room in the CCA for professionals from government and industry as well as communication practitioners.

Outreach and Communication
Through our website, electronic mailing list, and other communications, the CCA provides a venue for members to disseminate information about publishing, conferences, new hires, research projects and program updates. The interactive Forums and Events Calendar allow members to stay current with new developments in the field.

Mentoring
Through venues such as the annual conference, the website, and outreach to programs, the CCA plays a crucial role in the mentoring and support of graduate students.

Lobbying
The CCA works with national lobby organizations to help improve the status and influence nationwide of Communications research, and humanities and social sciences research in general.

Public Profile
Finally, the CCA is crucial in providing a public profile for Canadian communication scholars, both in Canadian public discourse and internationally.
