Abstract
This paper examines the increased need for ongoing and sustained international collaboration between academic advising practitioners. Specifically, it looks at the Canadian and American contexts for the profession of advising, and how current and emerging technologies can more easily facilitate these types of future international collaboration. A brief historical overview of the advising profession is provided, as well as some of the potential benefits and limitations of the proposed vision of future collaboration. The leading professional development association for North America, NACADA, is a grounding feature within this paper, as well, the ideas of co-writing professional development articles, co-presenting at international professional development conferences, and co-conducting research are all considered in this paper.
