The 2012 CIS Women's Volleyball Championship was held March 2, 2012 to March 4, 2012, in Hamilton, Ontario, to determine a national champion for the 2011–12 CIS women's volleyball season.[1] The tournament was played at the Burridge Gymnasium at McMaster University.[2] It was the second time that McMaster had hosted the tournament with the first time occurring in 1979.[2]

The second-seeded UBC Thunderbirds won their fifth consecutive national championship in their five-set win over the top-seeded Alberta Pandas.[1][3] The gold medal game was a rematch of the Canada West finals that had also gone to five sets, but eventually was won by the Pandas.[1]
