The Canadian Educational Press Association (CEPA) is a network of communications staff from organizations that represent public education workers across Canada. These communication specialists (such as writers, editors, graphic designers, social media specialists and others) work on behalf of their organizations to promote the value of public education and the rights of their members as workers and professionals. At the annual conference, representatives from each organization gather to exchange communication strategies.
