IAIABC Offers Ombuds Training

The International Association of Industrial Accident Boards and Commissions will offer a virtual Ombuds Training on October 27, 2026. The program includes sessions sessions designed for worker’s compensation Ombuds (cross-jurisdictional issues and protecting injured workers from scams), while other sessions are relevant to all Ombuds (artificial intelligence in Ombuds work, and compassion fatigue and self-regulation). Lori D’Angelo, Ombudsman of the Virginia Workers’ Compensation Commission and Co-Chair of IOA’s Conference Committee, will co-present a session on managing compassion fatigue and maintaining balance in Ombuds work. The training is open to IAIABC members and nonmembers and costs $119. Registration closes October 25. Additional information and registration. (IAIABC Events.)
