The STEP Canada national program committee is pleased to release the final program for this highly anticipated event. Join us June 12-13 in Toronto for unsurpassed networking and continuing education opportunities.

ATTENDED BY OVER 700 SENIOR STEP PROFESSIONALS, CANADIAN AND INTERNATIONAL

2017 will mark STEP Canada’s 19th National Conference, featuring more than 65 sought-after speakers who will discuss the latest trends and developments in wealth management. We are anticipating another record-breaking year as our Program Committee strategically planned two unique days filled with invaluable, practical, and timely discussions and events. The STEP Canada national conference has established itself as a must-attend event for Canadian and international practitioners as well as partnering sponsors.

In addition to talks by thought-provoking speakers from Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, and Singapore; we offer attendees the exclusive and robust STEP Canada native conference app, which delivers all available presentations and papers; pre-loaded USBs; breakfasts, lunches, and health breaks; a traditional conference binder of materials (if pre-ordered), an attractive conference bag; and access to many industry-related organizations whose services are showcased in the exhibit hall.

Parallel streams allow participants to select sessions that feature the latest developments in trusts and estates, as well as practical commentary from our panel of experts. Plenary and concurrent sessions provide practitioners from all disciplines with information that will greatly enhance the value of their practices.
