National Public Educator Forum Conference

The NPEF conference is taking place in two weeks. This group helps 9-1-1 public educators to network with one another and provides members to share information and ideas. This is an excellent model for counties and states to incorporate into the own area. How often do you as a 9-1-1 public educator contact and collaborate with the public educator from the adjoining county? Do you even know who they are? If the answer is no to both questions then why not consider reaching out. You will be surprised to learn of the same challenges that you have with your neighboring 9-1-1 public educator. Why not take it a step further and coordinate a tri-county or statewide meeting with your public educators. Taking these steps in organizing a meeting with your neighbors will prove to be beneficial.

If you do not have the opportunity to meet with educators in your area then make sure to at least sign up for for free membership with the 9-1-1 National Public Educator Forum. Your membership will allow you become acquainted with other educators as well as opportunities to get the help you need in launching or improving your public education program.

The 9-1-1 National Public Educator Forum Conference will be held on July 22-25, 2012, in beautiful San Antonio, Texas. Check out NPEF's new website at www.911npef.org for more information and be sure to "like" their new Facebook page at www.facebook.com/911NPEF.
