“As a multi-year Platinum Sponsor of IFDAT, we enjoy the opportunity to directly connect with customers, industry leaders and new faces in the world of drug and alcohol testing. The networking opportunities at the conference have helped to further expand our global base of business. Beyond the networking, I find that the sessions provide great insight into strategies to address the challenges of implementing global programs, and I look forward to learning more at IFDAT 2016 in Stavanger, Norway.”

“A business must do; IFDAT attendees take away important global legal compliance updates.”
Josephine KenneyFirst Advantage
“As owner of the global substance abuse policy for a large multinational Upstream Oil and Gas producer, I find the IFDAT conference and community a tremendous resource for the latest information on drug and alcohol testing. Not only does it provide excellent networking opportunities with peers from around the world, but the conference also spotlights the latest technological developments in the industry as well as highlighting current substance abuse trends.”
Rocco Iannapollo ConocoPhillips
“I had a fantastic time in San Diego, the IFDAT conference was a wonderful opportunity to gain insight into the current issues affecting drug and alcohol testing. It was invaluable to be able to discuss the issues of testing with such a broad range of delegates, from many backgrounds and with such varied expertise. I am really looking forward to IFDAT 2016 in Stavanger, Norway.”
Gary McCutcheonRandox Testing Services

The 2016 IFDAT Conference will be held in the Stavanger Region of Norway, home to some of the most beautiful places in the world.
There are many ways to immerse yourself in the remarkable scenery and culture of the region whether it be riding the Hurtigruten-boat from Bergen northwards or the Flåm railway in the mountains. Several spectacular hiking options are also nearby, including Trolltunga, Kjerag and Preikestolen (Pulpit Rock).
Preikestolen is one of the most visited attractions in Norway and one of the most photographed sites. This popular rock formation, 604 metres above the Lysefjord, was listed as one of the world’s most spectacular views and natural attractions by Lonely Planet and CNN GO travel magazine. IFDAT will be organizing a day trip for attendees interested in this fantastic nature experience.
