Integrity: Our Shared Culture - Join the Conversation in Monterrey!

by Camilla Roberts

Registration is now open, and we are inviting the academic integrity community to help shape the conversation!

Integrity is not something we build alone. It is strengthened when we learn from one another, share our experiences, challenge our thinking, and create meaningful connections across institutions, disciplines, communities, and cultures. That is the spirit behind the 2027 International Center for Academic Integrity Annual Conference theme: Integrity: Our Shared Culture.

This February, academic integrity professionals, educators, researchers, students, and leaders from around the world will gather in Monterrey, Mexico, to connect, learn, and explore the many ways we can continue building a shared culture of integrity.

Will you be part of the conversation?

Registration Is Open!

Now is the time to start making plans to join us for the 2027 ICAI Annual Conference. Whether you are a longtime member of the academic integrity community or are just beginning to explore this important work, the conference offers opportunities to connect with colleagues, discover new ideas, and bring fresh perspectives back to your institution.

Help Shape the Conversation: Submit a Concurrent Session Proposal

Do you have research, experiences, innovative practices, or lessons learned that could help move the academic integrity conversation forward? We want to hear from you!

The Call for Concurrent Sessions is now open, and proposals may be submitted and presented in English or Spanish. This is an opportunity to share your expertise with an international community and contribute directly to the conversations that will shape Integrity: Our Shared Culture.

We welcome proposals on any topic related to academic integrity, including:

Current Research

Share published work, ongoing research, assessment projects, research findings, emerging trends, theoretical frameworks, and areas for future exploration.

Student, Institutional, and Practitioner Experiences

Tell the story of innovative programming, student involvement, student-led initiatives, faculty engagement, policy implementation, campus collaborations, and other experiences that can inform the work of others.

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

Explore the ways institutions and practitioners are incorporating DEI principles into academic integrity policies, processes, programming, and culture.

Policy Issues

Discuss adjudication, policy development, policy renewal, and the challenges and opportunities involved in creating effective and meaningful academic integrity policies.

Artificial Intelligence

Bring your ideas about AI! We welcome proposals focused on AI innovations, research, policy development, ethical considerations, practical applications, and the rapidly evolving relationship between artificial intelligence and academic integrity.

What Does a Concurrent Session Look Like?

• Concurrent sessions will be 40 minutes, including approximately 30–35 minutes for the presentation and 5–10 minutes for questions and discussion.
• Presentations may be led by:
• Up to two presenters
• Up to three presenters for presentations consisting of undergraduate students
• Panel proposals are also welcome and may include up to five panelists. Panel submissions should include a clear description of the topics that will be discussed.
• To create opportunities for as many members of our community as possible, individuals may have their names on no more than two proposals and may serve as the lead presenter on only one accepted program.

The Conference Program Committee will evaluate proposals based on:

• Relevance and Broad Appeal
• Alignment with the Conference Theme(s)
• Stated Learning Outcomes
• Novelty, Innovation, and Creativity
• Organization and Format

If you have an idea that could spark a conversation, inspire a new approach, challenge assumptions, or help colleagues learn from your experiences, we encourage you to submit it.

Important Proposal Dates

• Concurrent Session Submission Deadline: September 18, 2026
• Concurrent Session Acceptance Notification: October 9, 2026

A Note About Presenting

The 2027 ICAI Annual Conference will be an in-person experience in Monterrey. There will be no live-streamed, virtual, or remote presentations, so individuals submitting proposals should be prepared to present in person. But that also means something special: the conversations, questions, connections, and ideas will happen together, in the room, as a truly global community.
