Modern Public Sector Communications in Northern Ireland
Our new model for Public Sector Communications in Northern Ireland aims to set the highest possible standards for communication staff across public sector organisations. Communications leads signed up to this model will inspire and empower teams to give their organisations the confidence to translate business objectives into communications activity and behavioural outcomes.
The NIPSCF was set up in April 2016 and is made up of communications professionals from Northern Ireland Executive departments, local authorities and arms-length bodies. The forum exists to build skills, establish partnerships and support professional communications excellence in Northern Ireland.
This site will provide you with the latest news about the forum, practical tips to help with your communications delivery and information about upcoming training and networking events.
