The IBIS Academy Programs
The Institute Track, IBIS Conference Track A, and ITAP Conference Track B:
How do they work?
The IBIS Institute Track, IBIS Conference Track A, and ITAP International Conference Track B run as separate tracks, but are held simultaneously at the same location.
- The IBIS Institute Track starts on Monday, 7 April 2008, and ends on Friday, 11 April.
- The IBIS Conference Track A and ITAP International Conference Track B start on Wednesday, 9 April 2008, and end on Friday, 11 April.
- Academy participants are able to register for the track of their preference and pay the corresponding fee. A combination is also possible in the overlapping period (after the start of the Conference Track) when both tracks run as parallel sessions, enabling attendees to attend conference sessions or participate in institute case studies or workshops.
- Delegates are required to make their own hotel reservations and pay for their own accommodation and related expenses. Event meals are included in the fee.
The IBIS Academy Institute Track
- Geared toward individuals who have recently assumed responsibility for their organization's international employee benefits programs, the IBIS Institute Track is a training course that gives attendees the core knowledge and skills they need to address each international benefits challenge as it arises. It is designed specifically to expand the participant’s knowledge base, to enhance existing skills, and to develop new tools and approaches regarding the management of international employee benefit plans – their design, their financing, legislative compliance, and the improvement of existing programs.
Although country-specific examples will be used in many of the sessions throughout the course (to illustrate current practices and problems), the Institute Track is more than a long series of Country Profiles. Instead, the Institute Track addresses core knowledge and skills that should allow the participant to address each international benefits challenge when it arises. This will include how to compile country-specific information that is up-to-date when it is needed, as well as techniques on conducting the project.

The IBIS Academy Conference Track A
- The IBIS Conference Track, which has been held in Europe for 38 years, aims to promote awareness of international issues related to pensions and employee benefits issues, educate participants, and provide a reputable platform to champion the cause of the HR manager worldwide. The Conference Track brings together a wide range of industry professionals who present their fields of expertise, perspective, and views to a wide audience which traditionally includes Human Resources, Compensation and Benefits, and Risk Managers as well as HR Directors and CEOs of multinational companies.

The ITAP International Conference Track B
- IBIS is delighted to welcome ITAP as a partner in the IBIS Academy with a separate ITAP track. We are confident that our Academy delegates will find much added value in ITAP's participation.
This new conference track focuses on the issues associated with achieving business success across national cultures and borders, and will be of particular interest for HR and line-management practitioners working internationally. Content will feature a range of powerful and high-value presentations charting experience and lessons learned from major international companies, consultants, and researchers, with a focus on practical outcomes.
Participants in the ITAP Conference Track B: National Culture and the Business of HR should register using the Conference Track registration form and check the box marked ITAP Member underneath the "Type of Industry" field.
