Home > Newsletter Naace Newsletter
The Naace Newsletter is published on Friday each week (apart from holiday periods) and is sent by email to the membership. It is also published on the Naace website, and builds to form a searchable archive. The Newsletter is seen to be a vital communication link between Naace Members. Not only does it serve to report on the work of Members elected to serve the Association, and that of the Naace professional team, but also provides a means of sharing information from Members who wish to publicise an event, a professional opportunity, research undertaken, or requests for help.
Newsletter archiveThe Newsletter archive COMING SOON. Newsletter features and updatesThere are regular features on items of topical interest, reports on Naace consultations, 'guest' articles and other pieces of up-to-the-minute news. There are also regular updates on the development of the ICT Mark, and a weekly 'What's on' section devoted to opportunities for professional development provided by third party organisations. A weekly 'Sponsors' Announcements' section brings newsworthy information from members of the Naace Sponsoring Partner community. We bring news of Naace events and activities, and regularly seek the views of the membership in a consultation process which has proved important not only to the Association itself, but also to other agencies, including Government departments. The Naace Newsletter is seen by such agencies as a valuable and speedy way of contacting the important group of people who form Naace, and therefore the Newsletter is often used to send out important information from organisations such as Becta, QCA and National Assessment Agency. In addition news items are submitted to the editor by Members. Such submissions are welcome. The editor seeks to supplement these by introducing other items of interest, sometimes in full, sometimes in summary with hyperlinks provided for further exploration. Publication datesDuring each year there are 42 Naace Newsletters, with a further six special editions which are devoted to news from Sponsoring Partners, and which are often linked to major events such as the Naace Strategic Conference and the BETT exhibition. Finally, each Newsletter closes with a somewhat more light-hearted item from the world of ICT, or on occasion with an item simply designed to amuse.
