National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week 2025

Every year during the second week of April, the telecommunications personnel in the public safety community, are honored. This week-long event is a time to celebrate and thank those who dedicate their lives to serving the public. It is a week that should be set aside so everyone can be made aware of their hard work and dedication.

APCO hosts a friendly competition every year where telecommunicators and agencies can post their entries into a themed contest. For 2025, the theme is “What’s the soundtrack for your ECC?” where we are asking you what music, song, band or even dance move describes your agency..
