About the Speaker Series
​In March 2020, just days before the OHEA annual conference, the world entered uncharted circumstances with the COVID-19 pandemic, and our in-person event was postponed and ultimately cancelled. Our community comprised of members,
affiliates, speakers and sponsors persevered, communicated, and looked for innovative ways of doing things.

The OHEA launched its inaugural Fall 2020 Speaker Series comprised of 3 evenings of inspiring on-line discussion and networking so that our community can continue to stay connected, grow, and build our future together. You can view the recorded series for Fall 2020 and Spring 2021 here.

#OHEA2021 promises three online speaker events of professional development, networking and fun for delegates, sponsors and speakers!
