About International Orthopedic Education Network

The world of orthopedic education is ever-changing and most pronounced during the COVID pandemic. Instantaneously live meetings ceased, and virtual meetings became the norm. Despite changes in how we practice medicine the need for in-person interactive orthopedic education remains. Surgeons and providers want high-quality, targeted, and practice-improving information.

The International Orthopedic Education Network started in 2023. IOEN is a 501c3 registered nonprofit orthopedic education platform founded on principles of providing a new level of orthopedic education – pragmatic, targeted, and practice-changing. Through four precision educational courses per year, IOEN will provide an educational experience for arthroplasty surgeons and providers to build their knowledge and skill sets. These in-person meetings will feature the best, brightest, and most diverse thought leaders in arthroplasty. Some courses will feature hands-on cadaver labs in addition to an intimate learning environment with faculty and participant engagement. We are excited to offer the next generation of orthopedic education to our residents, fellows, and arthroplasty colleagues.
