Buddy Program 2023

On the Monday evening before IIOA Conference Welcome Reception – 26th June 2023

Introduction

For IIOA Conference newbies and the experienced attendee. This is an opportunity to connect new attendees with more experienced I-O researchers and experts as well as share tips and tricks on how to make the most of your IIOA Conference experience and beyond.

Background

Being at any conference for the first time can be overwhelming - you may not know anyone; you may not know which presentations are relevant for you and you may not connect the names of the people you cite with the faces of the people.

The Buddy Program aims to give you an easy start by connecting with more experienced conference participants, who can show you around and introduce you to the IIOA crowd.

This program is open to everyone new to the I-O community, not only students. Young I-O scholars, who have already been to IIOA Conferences are also encouraged to participate. Please sign up either as a newbie or if you want to be a buddy for one or two newbies :)

Both, newbies and more experienced researchers need to sign up prior to the 2023 IIOA Conference:
