The High Level Event Seminar was an online event for the last 2 years, but as restrictions have eased, we are happy to announce that the HLES in 2023 will once again be organised as a physical event! The seminar will be held at the Best Western Hotel Cavalieri della Corona (a nice, slightly older hotel, but very reasonably priced), next to Milan’s Malpensa airport in Italy on 18th-19th February, 2023.
The traditions of the High Level Event Seminar goes back more than a decade. It all started in Oslo in 2009 and the Seminar has been organised annually since then and has become an important event attracting 40-75 attendees each year from about 15-20 countries. The seminar targets appointed organisers, potential future organisers and key persons of IOF High Level Events, including already appointed IOF Senior Event Advisers and Assistant Senior Event Advisers.
After the huge success of the first ever Sprint WOC 2022 in Denmark, the main focus of the HLES 2023 will be on the organisation of high level events, especially the World Orienteering Championships and the World Cup.
The invitation is found here.
Note that it is not possible to enter after the deadline, 15th of December, 2022.
