Education Opportunities

It is important to know that AMO will never solicit its members participation in our annual conference through other parties. A number of members have reported receiving emails from third parties to book your hotel rooms for the conference. This is a scam/phishing exercise. Be diligent, hackers are becoming more and more sophisticated. If it seems odd, or doesn't feel right, trust your instinct. Feel free to reach out to us at events@amo.on.ca.
