Dissemination & Awareness Raising

Netskills is expert at dissemination and awareness raising, whether face-to-face, online or in printed form. We can help amplify the outputs from your project or programme to reach a wide network of individuals and institutions within the UK education sector and beyond.

We believe in an audience focus and clarity of message and tailor our activities to meet the needs of your audience.

What we can offer:

  • Face-to-face events, from a one-off event to a programme of linked events
  • Case studies, reports and synthesis of related work and projects
  • Management, set-up and support of online events and conferences
  • Expert use of social media to engage with your audiences
