National Video Chats

The Indexing Society of Canada hosts a bi-monthly online chat session for members. It’s a great opportunity to connect with your fellow ISC indexers from all over Canada (and beyond!)

Members can log in and ask questions, exchange tips, and find out how fellow members are doing.


La Société canadienne d¹indexation organise des séances de clavardage en ligne une fois par deux mois. Ces séances présentent de belles occasions de rencontrer d¹autres indexeurs de la SCI au Canada (et même au-delà de la frontière!).

Les membres de la SCI peuvent se connecter et poser des questions, échanger des trucs et conseils, ou simplement discuter avec d¹autres indexeurs. Notez que les séances sont en anglais jusqu¹à maintenant.
