27 Oct 2014 - The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) is pleased to inform you that online registration for its 2015 Anti-Doping Organization (ADO) Symposium will open during the last week of November 2014.

As announced in July, this eleventh edition will be held for the first time over three days instead of two, from Tuesday 24 to Thursday 26 March 2015 at the Palais de Beaulieu in Lausanne, Switzerland.

The 2015 Symposium will in particular include on Day 2 a full day of practical workshops and training relating to education, testing, intelligence & investigations, results management, therapeutic use exemptions, ADAMS, and other key areas of the fight against doping in sport.

In addition, for the first time, WADA-accredited laboratories will partake in the Symposium, enabling interaction and discussions with ADOs on Day 3.

Day 1 will involve athletes in particular and will be open to the media.

Other new features, as well as specific details including a draft agenda and logistical information, will be announced at the time of registration opening.

WADA’s ADO Symposium is a unique event offering International Federations, National and Regional Anti-Doping Organizations, Major Event Organizers, as well as other stakeholders integral to the fight against doping in sport the opportunity to gather, network, share practices and brainstorm every year about the present and future of the fight for the protection of clean athletes.
