At NENA’s NG9-1-1 Standards & Best Practices Conference, you will gain an understanding of the world that is made possible by Next Generation 9-1-1 and help make it so.
SBP is a conference unlike any other. It is an interactive, informative, attendee-driven event where you not only learn about the standards that are spurring the development and implementation of NG9-1-1 technology and operations best practices, but also create the guidelines, resources, and documents that enable NG services, systems, and PSAPs to reach their full potential.
Join us in Orlando from January 15-18 and be part of the solution! With your peers from across the 9-1-1 universe, you’ll discuss and work to address the most pressing NG-related issues, including: GIS and NG-data needs; location services and accuracy; resiliency and interoperability; governance and funding; telecommunicator SOPs; procurement and transition planning; security and resiliency; apps and the Internet of Things; multimedia messaging and accessibility; hiring and training; and the evolution of 9-1-1 center supervision and management.
No other event provides you with the opportunity to shape the future of 9-1-1 and impact public safety for decades to come! Don’t miss your chance to be part of it!

There is a growing need for local authorities to understand the difference between NG9-1-1 and FirstNet as decisions are made about the future of emergency communications.
The National 911 Program recently partnered with the National Association of State 911 Administrators (NASNA) to create a resource to help state and local authorities understand how Next Generation 9-1-1 (NG9-1-1) and the Nationwide Public Safety Broadband Network, known as FirstNet, are similar, different and how they can work together to improve emergency communication.
The short, visual report shares critical information about the efforts to implement NG9-1-1 at the local and state level, and coordinate with FirstNet at the national level.
