Theme: Growth, Innovation, and Constant Evolution

The Alberta Chapter of the Canadian Land Reclamation Association (CLRA) will be hosting its Annual General Meeting (AGM) and Conference in Edmonton, Alberta from Wednesday, February 22 to Friday, February 24, 2023.

Our theme this year is brought to you thanks to several requests from members through feedback surveys. We couldn’t agree more that recent years have seen a significant shift in our industry. It seems like we’ve gone from squeezed budgets and pleading our cases, to struggling to find the time and resources to fulfill the demand. The changing social and regulatory climate has spurred a significant influx into the industry, and we have all evolved in response to meet the ever-changing landscape.

The conference consists of:

  • Sponsor Booths
  • Two Days of Presentations
  • Networking Opportunities
  • Tuesday Evening Reception
  • Wednesday Evening Welcome Reception
  • Thursday Evening Social, Banquet, and Awards
  • CLRA Alberta Annual General Meeting

Random Coffee

Let's Get Connected!

We’re pleased to welcome back the CLRA Alberta RandomCoffee program once again for 2023! 

RandomCoffee is back for CLRA Alberta Members! Connect with your peers and colleagues alike through RandomCoffee from January through March 2023! For those folks that are new to it, or need a refresher; RandomCoffee is an opportunity to meet other colleagues in the industry over a coffee or tea (or beer if you like!). Every week, registered participants will be “randomly” matched and invited to connect with one another. The program will help you re-connect with those you know, as well as meet new people, just like you normally would at various events! You are encouraged to meet in person, or virtually, whichever suits your needs and time allowance. Participants are from areas across the Province so look forward to expanding your current networking group and creating new contacts. 

CLRA Alberta AGM & Conference Registrants are signed up upon registration, but the program is open to all CLRA Alberta Members. Just send us an email to randomcoffee@clra.ca to get signed up!

How it Works

RandomCoffee 2023 is ready to kick off with the first chance to 'Opt In' starting Thursday, January 12!

If you “opt-in” (simple as a mouse click!), a few days later, you’ll receive a match email connecting you with another member. Once you receive your match, it is up to you and your match to schedule a day and time that week that will work for you to meet up. 

You can meet via whichever platform works best for you! Microsoft Teams, Skype, Zoom, Google Meet, etc. You may even choose to meet in person if your match lives/works nearby, but they could be located anywhere in Alberta.

You’ll even have your own profile that you can view and edit at any time. It tracks who you’ve chatted with so you can always refer back as you need. 

We’re looking forward to turning up the networking dial and hope that you are too!
