SUMMARY:Pre-Conference Workshop - Intro to Market Research Semiotics: Going Deep Into Qual
DESCRIPTION:Pre-Conference Workshop\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Intro to Market Research Semiotics: Going Deep Into Qual\n				This half-day workshop will teach you the fundamentals of semiotic analysis\, a specialized qual methodology designed to give you deep\, bathymetric layers of insight beyond consumer-facing approaches. If you’ve ever struggled to work with shallow\, monosyllabic respondent answers (or shrugs!)\, semiotics will open up avenues of meaning for you and your project – it taps into the shared cultural foundations of communication and meaning\, and can inform research in any industry or category. The workshop starts with some theory\, so you’ll understand what you’re doing\, but then moves quickly onto guided\, hands-on practice conducting your own semiotic analyses across a range of media and texts: words and written language\, print advertising\, TV advertising\, packaging\, and music – enabling you to look at virtually all aspects of market research through a new lens\, in a new light. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Why Attend\n				Attending this workshop will equip you with the tools to move beyond surface-level responses and access the deeper meanings embedded in cultural context. Whether you are seeking to enhance your qualitative research skills\, bring innovative approaches to your team\, or simply wish to better understand the implicit codes that drive consumer behavior\, this session provides practical strategies\, hands-on experience\, and a new lens through which to interpret market realities. It’s an opportunity to build expertise in a method that brings clarity and richness to both client projects and your own professional development. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Who Should Attend:\n				\nMarket researchers seeking deeper qualitative insights\nBrand strategists and communications professionals\nProduct managers and innovation teams\nAnyone frustrated by surface-level responses in qualitative studies\nResearchers or analysts interested in cultural context and meaning-making\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Course Format:\n				The workshop is structured as a half-day session\, beginning with a concise introduction to semiotic theory and its relevance in market research. The majority of the program is dedicated to interactive\, hands-on exercises\, allowing participants to practice semiotic analysis on a variety of media types\, including written language\, advertisements\, packaging\, and music. This experiential format ensures that attendees gain both a theoretical foundation and practical skills to apply immediately in their work. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Learning Outcomes:\n				Understand the principles and value of semiotic analysis in market researchGain practical experience conducting semiotic analysis across multiple media typesLearn to extract deeper layers of meaning from qualitative dataDevelop skills to interpret cultural codes in communication and brandingBe able to apply semiotic methods to enhance research projects in any sector \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Instructor: \nDr. Charles Leech holds his PhD in Applied Semiotics and Media Studies and has worked tirelessly as an evangelist for market research semiotics his entire career\, which is 25 years and counting. He has instructed market research clients and practitioners in semiotic analysis for the QRCA\, PMRS\, MRIA\, ESOMAR\, and other initialisms/acronyms he’s now forgotten. He’s currently a Senior Vice President with Ipsos Canada. \n			\n				Register\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n\n\nEarly Bird Pricing Dec. 1st – May 15th 2026\nMay 16th – June 15th 2026\n\n\n$350 Member (CAIP/CRIC)$400 Non-Member\n$400 Member (CAIP/CRIC)$450 Non-Member

SUMMARY:Wired For Empathy: The Skills That Make You The Researcher AI Can't Replace
DESCRIPTION:AI is getting faster\, cheaper\, and more capable by the month. But better AI doesn’t make human researchers redundant — it makes the distinctly human qualities they bring more valuable\, not less. The researchers who will thrive are those who understand how to use AI as an accelerant while bringing something to the work that no model can replicate: judgment\, interpretation\, and the intelligence that comes from genuinely understanding people. This webinar explores what that actually looks like in practice. We’ll dig into why human-centered skills — the ability to read a room\, ask the right question at the right moment\, build trust with respondents and clients\, and make sense of data in context — sit at the heart of research quality\, and why they remain the hardest thing to automate. Drawing on audience polling\, we’ll hear directly from researchers about how these skills shape their work\, whether they’re valued as highly as technical or analytical capabilities in their organizations\, and what gets in the way of them being recognized as genuine strategic assets. From organizational culture and the absence of ROI metrics\, to imposter syndrome and shifting client expectations\, we’ll map the real barriers and start to dismantle them. We’ll close by exploring what it would take to change the conversation: the frameworks\, the language\, the role models\, and the evidence researchers need to advocate confidently for the human layer in an AI-driven environment.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Register
