The Toronto Section is here to serve the members of the International Society of Automation (ISA).

District & Division: Please know that ISA is changing the way members engage around technical topics. More specifically, ISA is sunsetting divisions effective 31 December 2024. This difficult decision came after long deliberations considering feedback from current and former members.
We are excited to share that we will subsequently launch a new way for you to Connect, organized around automation technologies and processes. You will be able to ask and answer questions in real-time, all structured around the technical content topics that are most important to automation professionals. With this engagement across sectors, we will learn, share our expertise and grow as professionals for the duration of our careers.
We are excited about this new direction, which is more closely aligned with the needs and interests of ISA’s diverse and growing membership base. Stay tuned for more information on the new technical communities.
