Drury’s SMC webinar course, facilitated by author and social media consultant Deltina Hay, now offers a four week and an eight week version! Deltina is the author of one of our primary texts and remains the impetus for our bootcamp. In an enhanced, e-learning environment, I give participants a thorough knowledge of social media tools and how to use them. I demonstrate strategic methods and offer participants an opportunity to apply them. My emphasis is on best practices and ethical methods for succeeding in the Social Web.
–Deltina Hay, author The Social Media Survival Guide: Strategies, Tactics, and Tools for Succeeding in the Social Web (2011)
The SMC Webinar Course is now accredited by the Internet Marketing Standards Board!
What some of our graduates are saying:
This course has been very valuable! I was thrilled to go beyond theories and statistics to actually apply the techniques from the text. I learned so much in each chapter–things I never thought I could comprehend. Sign me up for the SMC Part 2! -Sonja G., University Administrator
This course met my needs and will help me develop new curricular material for my communication students. It also gave me hands-on skills with a variety of social media tools, a new appreciation for social media optimization and, perhaps most important, the confidence to explore social media tools on my own. -John L., Public Relations Consultant & College Professor
I loved the course. I felt halfway tech literate before the course; now I feel very tech literate. I will use blogs, Facebook pages, Flickr, and LinkedIn routinely in my new business. I really learned much and enjoyed it! -Kelly O., Small Business Owner
