June 28 - July 1, 2009 in San FranciscoCommunication: The Bridge to Education SuccessThe NSPRA National Seminar is the largest gathering of school communication professionals in North America, bringing together outstanding experts and practitioners in communication and leadership for three days of collaboration and learning. School public relations professionals and educational leaders must demonstrate accountability and student achievement in local schools like never before. You need parent involvement. You need public engagement. And, you need clear communication to get your messages heard and strengthen the connection between your schools and your community. With more than 70 skill-building sessions rich in resources and ideas, the NSPRA Seminar provides a laser focus on what’s working in cutting-edge communication programs and how to respond to today’s critical education issues. Communication issues you deal with daily, such as accountability, transparency, funding, rebuilding trust and public support, student performance, communication technology, media relations, handling crises, branding and marketing, public engagement, social media, customer service, diversity and tolerance, education advocacy and much, much more. Participants gave the 2008 NSPRA Seminar high marks on evaluations, with an impressive 94% of respondents ranking the Seminar as “excellent” or “good.” Many called the Seminar “absolutely the best professional development opportunity” for school public relations professionals and education leaders alike.
