The NAGC Communications School is the only event of its kind that provides invaluable networking opportunities and practical educational sessions to help government communicators increase their skills. Federal, state and local government communicators and contractors gather to network and attend educational sessions.

Health and Safety Guidelines 
The NAGC knows that the health and safety of our attendees is most important. Although we are moving forward with an in-person Communications School in May 2022, we do so with both optimism and caution. We will continue to monitor local, state, and federal health and safety guidelines and will make adjustments as needed. Each attendee, exhibitor, and speaker will be provided with sanitizer and face masks. Our team of professionals is also working with the events team at the Galt House to review and adapt to changing health and safety protocols in regards to event management. We’re in this with you and we will continue to communicate with attendees on changes as they occur, but if you have specific questions, drop us a line at info@nagc.com.
