The instructors were knowledgeable and engaging, the material was presented in an organized way, and there were plenty of opportunities for both small-group and large-group discussions. I also enjoyed having the opportunity to meet and learn from colleagues all over the world without having to deal with the expenses normally associated with travel."</span></p> <p><strong>— Dr. Julia Farmer, IOA Member</strong></p> </blockquote> <hr /> <h3><strong style="font-size: 18px;"><a name="f2025"></a>2025 IOA Foundations Courses</strong></h3> <div class="wrapper"> <p>Dates are subject to change.
