Social Media Bootcamp

Go from amateur to influencer 

Social media is one of the most powerful tools to connect to your clients and expand your personal and professional influence. But, excellent social media requires a combination of skills: brilliant writing, an eye for design and visuals, the capacity to create relevant multimedia materials, tactics to set the conversation and continue engagement as well as the capacity to plan and execute.  The digital landscape is also constantly changing; if you don’t keep up, you and your brand will be left behind. Our Social Media Bootcamp draws on the latest digital developments and online trends globally, ensuring you gain, not only the skills to participate in the conversation, but the practical tools to thrive as a master storyteller across various online platforms. 

 6 weeks online e-learning / 2 days training facilitated online or in person

Course overview

Social media allows you to engage directly with your audience and clients, making it potentially your most valuable asset, whether you want to grow your business, communicate  with clients or expand your influence. But social media trends and practices are constantly  changing, as are the algorithms, rules that govern  user behaviour and user engagement practices. What worked on social media last year will not work now.

We want to make sure that you stay up-to-speed with the latest trends andget the best return on your social media investment. Our experience-informed, intensive social media course is developed to give you the practical skills to create, maintain and grow your presence and influence across social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn and more. 

After this training you will understand how and why to use the various platforms, and how to ensure your content evolves as the platforms do. Changes to the social media landscape and their audiences must shape your digital strategies, and we want to help you make sure that your online engagements remain impactful, relevant and targeted towards your goals and objectives. 

The training is topical, comprehensive and interactive, and will equip you with the knowledge and tools you need to engage with your audience effectively across the social media platforms. Practical sessions ensure that you get to put your theoretical knowledge to the test and build up top-notch multimedia social media content.

This course has been designed around your schedule and can be attended as a practical two-day workshop or run over six weeks, with two-hour long sessions held in the evenings to accommodate working participants.
