The conference for communications directors
Take your professional skills to the next level: Be a part of the inaugural Fine Point Off-Site conference!
This day-long program for communications directors at independent schools is at the Westin Seattle on Wednesday, Feb. 25 — one day before the NAIS Annual Conference starts in earnest.
Gain relevant and practical information from experts on these high-interest topics and more:
- Storytelling amid shrinking reader attention
- Building artificial intelligence into your team’s workflow
- Protecting your school’s reputation during a crisis
- Creating high-impact video that people will share
The gathering we’ve needed
Presenters during the Off-Site are established leaders in independent schools.
And sessions are geared specifically to what communications directors need today. The consistent aim and quality of this program simply can’t be found at any other conference.
Along with this much-needed professional development, the Off-Site provides plenty of time for directors to meet and talk shop with their peers from other schools.
Lessons learned and connections made at the Fine Point Off-Site will pay dividends all year.
Professional development without compromise
For too long, independent school communicators have lacked an annual event of our own, where the focus is solely on improving our craft. Instead, we’ve made do with the fringes of gatherings intended for other departments.
With the Fine Point Off-Site, there is no longer a need to settle.
- Our sessions focus on marketing and communications issues.
- Registrations are capped to ensure every director has the opportunity for lively participation.
- And the schedule includes plenty of time for networking.
Need more reasons to attend the Off-Site? We’ve got them!
So make plans now to join us in Seattle. It will be a great day of learning and connection!
