Virtual Venue Access

The Conference may have come to an end, but your access to the Virtual Venue has not. You and all of your new ombuddies can keep the conversation going and continue watching recordings all the way through December 2021! We hope you stay in touch and continue engaging with other attendees on the Virtual Venue and also on the IOA website.

Community Building

Every year, the IOA Conference is the best way to collaborate and meet with hundreds of your fellow ombuds and this year is no different. The Conference Committee has purposefully crafted networking time to ensure that no matter what timezone you reside in you'll still connect, meet, and rekindle friendships with new folks and people you've known forever. Learn more on the attendee experience page. We also want to ensure you have time to meet our sponsors and exhibitors.
