The GC UX Network brings together the UX community within the GC and beyond for networking events.

What does the GC UX Network do?[edit | edit source]

We connect UX practitioners and leaders from all levels of government across Canada and internationally. Our membership includes 500+ people from Canada, US, UK and beyond.

The GC UX Network holds online networking events a few times a year. They offer participants the ability to:

  • introduce themselves to other members of the UX community,
  • find UXers to hire or find UX jobs, and
  • participate in networking discussions on a variety of UX-related topics.

As these are networking opportunities, events are not recorded.

Participation ranges depending on the topic and time of year. We can have anywhere from 50-150 people per event.

Stay informed of upcoming events[edit | edit source]

Join the mailing list to stay updated on GC UX Network events. All events are promoted through direct emails to the mailing list.
