All NISC events seek to improve public safety and emergency management information sharing and interoperability. Our events include webinars, an annual summit, and an annual private sector symposium.
Webinars are open to any interested stakeholder: you don’t need to be a member to attend. For limited-access webinars, members receive priority registration. Some events, such as the annual summit, are members-only.
