About the Event
Developed and driven by the editors of Chief Learning Officer, the CLO Symposium is where learning, training and development professionals come together to learn from each other. By connecting with people and teams who have faced similar challenges and goals, you can learn practical applications that will help you and your team achieve the results your organization expects. This conference isn’t just for CLOs, though. Get the most out of the experience by bringing your team so you can all learn together. The Symposium is held in the spring and fall in different locations each year, so if one event doesn’t work for your learning department, consider attending the other. We look forward to seeing you there!
SPECIAL NOTE: We understand there has been some confusion with all of the “CLO” events that have sprouted up over the years. The bi-annual Chief Learning Officer magazine CLO Symposium is the ONLY conference produced by the editors of Chief Learning Officer magazine. CLO Exchange, CLO Summit, CLO Forum, Chief Learning Officer and Influencers Forum, among others are NOT affiliated with our organization. Often imitated, but never duplicated, CLO Symposium has been the gold standard for corporate learning events for 16 years. Accept no substitutes.
