Applications are now open for the 2026 Student Industry Program (SIP), taking place during the RIMS Canada Conference in Quebec City from October 18–21, 2026 at the Centre des congrès de Québec.
This nationally recognized industry event brings together experienced risk professionals from across sectors, creating an unmatched learning environment for students interested in the field of risk management. Through the SIP, selected students gain direct exposure to the conversations, challenges, and innovations shaping the profession today.
Conference attendees include leaders responsible for Enterprise and Strategic Risk Management, Internal Audit, Corporate Compliance, and other critical governance and risk functions. They attend seeking practical solutions to real-world issues — and the educational program is built to deliver just that. Keynote speakers, expert-led panels, and in-depth sessions explore emerging risks, evolving regulations, and the growing strategic role of risk management within organizations.
For students, this is more than a conference — it’s a chance to build meaningful industry connections, explore potential career paths, and understand how risk professionals create value inside their organizations. Through both structured learning and informal networking, participants leave with insights, resources, and techniques that simply can’t be replicated in a classroom setting.
If you’re looking to accelerate your understanding of the risk profession and connect with leaders in the field, the 2026 SIP at the RIMS Canada Conference is an opportunity worth pursuing.
