Social Media Training Workshop

Arkansas Tech University’s Office of University Relations is offering a social media workshop this afternoon.  The training session is designed to assist various campus departments and organizations with using social media.

Recently, the Office of University Relations created social media guidelines to assist university entities that wish to have a social media presence.  Topics covered in the guidelines include page creation, branding guidelines and best practices for posting content.  Access the Social Media Guidelines.

During the training sessions, participants will be able to work with university personnel to create a social media presence and ask questions about social media.

“We know that social media plays an important role in communicating with current students, alumni, future students and parents.  For those entities that wish to have a presence, we hope the social media guidelines and training sessions will provide support and help ensure the sites implement the university brand,” explained Carrie Phillips, assistant director of new media at Arkansas Tech.

This afternoon’s session will take place in Room 331 of the Ross Pendergraft Library and Technology Center, and the session is scheduled to begin at 3 p.m.
