The International Listening Association (ILA) is an organization developed to promote the study, development, and teaching of listening; the association is “dedicated to learning more about the impact that listening has on all human activity.” The ILA was founded in 1979 In Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA. The ILA holds annual conferences throughout the US and choses locations outside of the US every three to five years. Conference presenters have included people of varied backgrounds related to listening to provide a full range of interesting perspectives on listening, for example: communication professors, corporate trainers, audiologists, musicians, researchers and more.

ILA Mission and Vision: The Purpose of the Association is to advance the practice, teaching, and research of listening throughout the world

The purpose of the Association will be accomplished in the following ways:
