Events and training

Conferences

Conferences play an important part in informing NCB members and the wider children's sector about developments in policy, good practice, research findings and government consultations. They also provide an opportunity to communicate the work of NCB's many departments, networks, councils and fora. NCB runs a programme of conferences featuring expert speakers, who are both policy-makers and practitioners, on topical subjects as well as supporting specialist networks.
