Leave a comment
On March 11, 2012 I did a pre-conference workshop at the 2012 Conference of the National Council for Marketing and Public Relations (NCMPR). It’s an organization for marketing and PR professionals in higher education at 2-year colleges. Below you can find the resources from that presentation (the slides, handout, audio, and some video).
If you found the materials or the workshop to be helpful, I’d appreciate a review on Linkedin. Hopefully I’ll get the opportunity to do more workshops like these.

Handout:
- How Not to be a Social Media N00b (.pdf) [I essentially crammed a variety of social media resources into this handout with brief descriptions so that attendees wouldn't have to scramble to take notes while I blathered on.]
Slides:
- How Not to be a Social Media N00b [This was the main set of slides I used.]
- Tutorials / How-tos [This was a second set of slides walking through how to accomplish a variety of useful tasks in social media.]
