The **IAAO Annual Conference** is the flagship gathering of the International Association of Assessing Officers, the professional body serving property assessment and valuation officials. The conference bills itself as the premier platform for sharing successes, discovering best practices, and learning from expert colleagues about the latest research in property appraisal and valuation. The 2026 edition takes place October 13–16 in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, at the Calgary TELUS Convention Centre. The event draws assessors, appraisers, tax administrators, mass-appraisal specialists, GIS and valuation-technology professionals, and vendors serving the assessment community from across North America and around the world.
