Join Kirstin Beardsley of CanadaHelps for a morning of social media policy training. 

Don’t have a social media policy?  So essentially, anyone in the organization can say and do whatever they want?  It’s time for some guidelines!

While social media is about free and open conversations online, your organization still needs to have some thoughts to paper on how to manage the online sphere.  How do you distinguish between personal and professional personas online?  What things are appropriate and what isn’t?  What about privacy concerns?  Join this session to learn more about what your organization can do to make social media work for you.  

Attendees Will Walk Away With:
•    Knowledge of the types of social media issues requiring policies
•    Templates on writing your own social media policy for your organization
•    Tips on implementing the policies effectively

Please join us at the Metro Central YMCA for this timely and valuable workshop. Light refreshments will be served.
