January Development Workshop

ENGAGE + COMMUNICATE = EVOLVE
A Guide to the World of Social Media

It's most likely you've heard the terms Tweet, Hastags, or Friend. You've seen logos for Twitter, Facebook, Digg and LinkedIn. The terms you've seen and heard are all part of what we now call Social Media.

But what does Social Media mean?
If you're not engaged with online communication, or know how it can benefit you personally, and professionally then this is the workshop for you. You won't want to miss it!

Companies pay thousands of dollars for this workshop, but CABJ members will reap the benefits for free!

Please register early because space is limited.

If you have some specific questions you'd like to address e-mail them to me. We will tailor this workshop for you.
