A new year is beginning, and with it, a new cycle of learning, dialogue and transformation. FIT is proud to kick off 2026 by sharing and supporting some of the most important events organised across all our Regional Centres.

Turning the Page: Defining Your Future in 2026

Organised by the Canadian Translators, Terminologists and Interpreters Council (CTTIC), the webinar will take place online on 22 January 2026, 4 PM Pacific Standard Time (1:00 AM CET)

You can register here for free: https://stibc.org/webinars-and-workshops/ =436&cid=1715&wid=801&type=Cal

This presentation explores the crossroads where every professional currently stands. It draws a powerful line between the professions that faded into history and those that reinvented themselves, becoming more valuable than ever. It is an invitation to stop viewing 2026 as a challenge to survive and start seeing it as an opportunity to become truly essential. The question is no longer about what the market will do to us, but who we choose to become within it.

A recording will be provided after the session for those who are unable to attend.
