Member Profile FAQs
Can I post my biographical/bibliographical information on the CANSCAIP site?
All Members are offered a page in the Member Directory to present their biographies and bibliographies, along with other pertinent professional data. Friends are offered a basic profile page, including name, organization (if applicable), province or territory, and website (if applicable). A link to your Member or Friend profile page is automatically generated when you post to a blog or forum on the CANSCAIP site.
How do I post my listing?
Some information from your application form will be posted to your profile page when you join. This information is restricted to your name, organization (if applicable), province or territory, craft (for Members) and website (if applicable).
