Professional Development

Our team is committed to ongoing professional development and participates in workshops, conferences, and training to grow our skills and experience.

Codes of Professional Conduct

Our team follows the highest codes of ethics and conduct relevant to their professional designations, including:  

Fundamentals of OCAP®

In January 2022, team members completed the Fundamentals of OCAP® course which outlined principles developed by the First Nations Information Governance Centre to support First Nations’ data sovereignty and information management.

Our team is committed to aligning with OCAP® principles of ownership, control, access, and possession when engaging Indigenous groups and delivering services.

OAIA Conference 2021

The Ontario Association for Impact Assessment hosted a virtual conference in the fall of 2021 attended by members of the Odonaterra team. Valuable information was shared on best practices in impact assessment and methods for more holistic project evaluation, which is being integrated into our work.

IAIA22 Conference

In the spring of 2022, the Odonaterra team attended the International Association for Impact Assessment conference virtually and in person in Vancouver. The conference provided excellent information on emerging trends and best practices in impact assessment, and invaluable opportunities to network with practitioners from across Canada and around the world.
