Social Media for Business Online Course
Social media is one way in which businesses today can keep in touch with customers to let them know what is happening. It can be particularly useful when there are special offers and promotions to be announced. However, as news stories over the years have shown, corporate social media accounts can also cause damage to a company’s brand when things are posted on there that have caused controversy or offence.
This online course looks at how to get the best out of social media with regards to a business. It will cover business strategy, business development and the practicalities of employing people and agencies to support your social media activity. There are modules on using Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn, as well as blogging and video, before concluding by determining whether social media is worth the effort for a business.
There are multiple choice questions at the end of each unit. Those who successfully achieve the minimum mark required to pass these assessments are rewarded with a printable certificate.
An e-learning course is ideal for those who cannot get time away from the workplace and do not require a tailored course which deals with specific risks. If you do, then an open course or bespoke/in-house course will be much more suitable for your requirements.
The course comprises the following modules:
- Module 1: Introduction
- Module 2: What is Social Media?
- Module 3: Introduction to POST Methodology
- Module 4: Websites and Microsites
- Module 5: Facebook
- Module 6: LinkedIn
- Module 7: Twitter
- Module 8: Blogging
- Module 9: Video
- Module 10: Bringing It All Together
- Module 11: Is Socia Media Worth It?
