Join us for the NebSPRA Fall Conference on November 17–18, 2026 in Omaha, Nebraska!

The 2026 NebSPRA Conference, Game On: Leveling Up Strategic Communications, will bring school communicators together for a packed day and a half of learning where strategy meets play! Innovation and wellbeing both thrive when you give yourself permission to level up.

See the full conference agenda!

This year's game board is stacked with advanced opportunities to learn from experts and brainstorm with the peers who understand exactly what you're navigating. You'll leave with practical tools for your return to the office and a stronger strategic hand for the long game. With over 14 sessions across both days, you can expect the expertise you've come to count on, plus a few new moves we're not revealing yet! Dig into the topics shaping your work in school communications right now: creativity, AI, crisis planning, social media strategy, digital accessibility, community trust, and practical peer examples of problem-solving innovation.

It's time to play more strategically. Game On!

Stuart is ready to help attendees playfully tap into their own creativity to solve real problems and leave with concrete next steps to break through the challenges they face. In addition to his keynote, Stuart will serve as a one-on-one resource for attendees to talk through what they are learning or where they might be stuck, and receive real thought partnership to see problems or ideas from new angles.
