Social Media Training 2009 Schedule`

Finally - a few days later than hoped - but we've posted the 2009 schedule for the Social Media Management™ series of social media training courses.  Registration opens December 1, 2008 for our '09 workshop courses.

Keep in mind these workshops are for those serious about learning to use, leverage, manage and strategize social media. These are not  for casual learning - you know, the 'sit-back-and-get-ideas' kind of gathering. These courses are for those who want to learn the inner workings of social media so they can apply it fluidly to many kinds of organizational solutions.    In other words, this is not painting-by-numbers but creating individual social media masterpieces. Well, you get the idea.  Come ready to work.

New Media Training Launched

It has been a little quiet here on my blog in recent weeks.  I have missed posting, but we’ve been working diligently on creating a training program for marketing and communications pros on using new media tools.  We are calling it the Modern Mediasphere™ Training Series

These are actual hands-on classes in how to use tools like blogs, tags, social networking, RSS and more.  I found after asking “what is it?” most professionals can see the opportunities. They just don’t have the time to dig around and discover how to use the tools.  So, we are offering classes to bring people up to speed quickly by guiding them through the tools and giving them tips on getting the most from them.

We are offering the training in 11 cities in the U.S.  If you want more information start here.  Yes, we are still offering our seminars, as well.

Now that we’ve launched our training program, I will be back to more regular postings.  Thanks for staying tuned!
