About Comm Academy

Comm Academy 2021 is a free, virtual training conference for anyone interested in learning more about emergency communications technologies and practices. Taking place April 10th and 11th, 2021, Comm Academy will be organized around the theme “Disasters Here, There and Everywhere – Are We Ready?”

As it has in all of its 22+ previous iterations, the conference will feature expert speakers on a wide variety of topics, from radio and messaging technologies to communications techniques to tales from the “trenches.”

More than just a collection of online presentations, Comm Academy 2021 will be an interactive event, with participants able to converse with presenters and other attendees.

I hope all have enjoyed a happy beginning to 2021. Some of have had a couple setbacks but it’ll get better.

From what I have heard the Emergency exercise held on the 30th of January had some hiccups but that is why we have “practices”.  Thanks to Ernie Venis (WØLTC, whom I believe is the ARES local representative) for allowing me to post information here on the website. I look forward to posting more information about other programs being held by ARES. Oh, BTW ARES, for those of you who may not know, stands for Amateur Radio Emergency Services. If you would like more information on what ARES is and does check out ARRL by clicking HERE.

Would like to give a big welcome to the new members
