AAO 2021: Re/Create

We look forward to seeing you in New Orleans. Based on your feedback, and innovations in meeting design, we are re-creating the live meeting. New! To ease meeting navigation and to provide all attendees more educational content we are eliminating the old instruction course pass and implementing a registration fee.

Annual meeting registration and hotel reservations are opening for Academy and AAOE members starting Wednesday, June 16.

Nonmembers will be able to register and book hotel rooms starting Wednesday, July 7.
