New course: Social Media Awareness Training now live

Our Social Media Awareness Training is now live!

Social media is often depicted as a pass time to be enjoyed outside of working hours, but in the modern workplace social media usage is ever increasing.

In fact, the average internet user spends 145 minutes per day on social media. Additionally, it is estimated that 77% of all workers use some form of social media at work.

With this increase in usage, it’s crucial that those using social media at work understand how to do so properly and are made aware of the implications of using these platforms improperly. According to a survey conducted by CareerBuilder.com, 18% of employers say that they have dismissed employees because of something they posted on social media and that’s without mentioning the impact that improper use of social media can have on a businesses reputation and bottom line. 

Our online course explores how social media might be used at work, and also when it shouldn't be used. The CPD Accredited course can be completed in just 15 minutes!

• Understand what social media is and how it should be used in the workplace
• Recognise the common features of social media
