Frequently Asked Questions
What is the CLO Symposium?
Now in its 20th year, the CLO Symposium is the premier event for learning and development executives to gather and exchange ideas, best practices and emerging trends. Developed and driven by the editors of Chief Learning Officer magazine, 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. Get the most out of the experience by bringing your top executives and team members to the event (ask us about group discounts).
The Symposium is held annually in the fall in a different location each year. We look forward to seeing you there!
SPECIAL NOTE: We understand there has been some confusion with numerous “CLO” events that have sprouted up over the years. The annual CLO Symposium is the ONLY conference produced by the editors of Chief Learning Officer magazine (published since 2003), chieflearningofficer.com. CLO Symposium has been the gold standard for corporate learning events for 20 years. Accept no substitutes.
How is the CLO Symposium connected to Chief Learning Officer?
The CLO Symposium is the ONLY annual conference produced by the editors of Chief Learning Officer. Don’t be fooled by the surplus of copycat events with the words “Chief Learning Officer” or “CLO” in their title.
How long has CLO Symposium been around?
The CLO Symposium launched on Valentine’s Day weekend in 2004. We have been hosting the event annually ever since.

Registration Policy
Registration for Chief Learning Officer events is restricted to internal learning & development practitioners and a limited number of sponsors with clearly defined roles. This policy is in place to ensure that every live CLO event offers a respectful, relaxed environment where active professionals can network, learn from one another and have frank discussions about what is happening in their industry, organizations and careers. All registrations are subject to review. If it is determined that the registrant does not qualify, the registration will be canceled and a refund issued to the card supplied.

What types of sessions are offered?
- Keynotes: A highlight of every CLO Symposium is the main stage keynote presentations. The editors of Chief Learning Officer begin researching and evaluating potential keynote speakers over a year in advance. Past headliners have included such trailblazers as Adam Grant, Michelle Gielan, Gretchen Rubin, Jonah Berger, Gary Vaynerchuk, Steve Pemberton, Bill Rassmussen, Charles Duhigg, Adam Braun, Geoff Colvin, Dr. Ruth Gotian, Kevin M. Yates, Kamales Lardi and many more.
- CLO PowerHour/FASTtalks: Our take on TED Talks, these rapid-fire practitioner narratives are delivered in 15 minutes or less. We conclude the series of talks with a brief Q&A from the audience for a deeper dive.
- Panel Discussions: Lively debates deliver knowledgeable dialogue and unique perspectives on topics of keen interest to L&D leaders.
- Spotlight Workshops: Ripped from the pages of Chief Learning Officer, these editorial-driven breakout sessions dive deep into the issues that matter to you and are presented by fellow CLOs.
- Partner Workshops: These one-hour breakout sessions add rich content and value to the agenda. CLO event partners co-present with their corporate clients to share success stories about implementing a new program and/or solving a business issue for their client’s organization. You will have your choice of up to 16 case study-style presentations to choose from throughout the conference.
Where can I get a schedule of the workshops taking place during the conferences?
We aim to post workshop details no later than six weeks prior to the event. Most of these are client case studies presented on behalf of our event partners and take a bit more time to finalize. You’ll find everything we have so far listed in the agenda above.
