Developing Leaders - Canceled

The Emerging Leadership Summit (ELS) has been canceled and IAAO will contact registrants regarding a full refund or credit toward other IAAO programs or products.

The Summit is designed to provide a powerful professional development opportunity for emerging leaders who have a desire to advance their careers in the assessment industry.

Participants will develop the skills needed to navigate the unique dynamics of a typical assessment office and discover leadership tools needed to guide an assessment office into the future.

Attendees will come away with a new network of peers and colleagues with a shared purpose who can support each other in their careers long after the summit is over.

Who should attend?

ELS is designed for early to mid-career managers who have a desire to advance within the assessment profession. Early to mid-level managers in their first or second leadership roles are ideal attendees. To learn more about attending the ELS, please review the FAQ Page.
