SALT LAKE CITY, Utah — The Logistics Officer Association will host virtual LOA University classes October 19-23 in lieu of an in-person symposium this fall.
LOAU will offer five courses, one each day of the week, in order to effectively meet the organization’s mission of providing value-added professional development and educational opportunities for logisticians across the force.
All courses will be streamed online each day, and the recordings will remain online to view when convenient.
The LOA National Team encourages local chapters to harness creative ideas for hosting watch parties while maintaining social distance.
“We’re excited to help our local chapters find ways to engage and learn during these unprecedented times, but I also want to emphasize the virtual LOAU courses will be beneficial for enlisted, officer, civilians – all loggies,” said Boyd Stewart, LOA Chief Learning Officer.
The 2021 LOA Symposium will take place March 30 – April 2 and is currently expected to be held in-person in Salt Lake City, Utah. The symposium will kick-off by featuring a full day of LOAU courses.
