Higher Ed Experts

Many thanks for your offering of the online course Writing for Social Media & the Web in Higher Ed! Within one week of earning my certificate, I am already working on an updated web plan for our entire online presence. Professor Michael and the course development team should be proud for making such real-world impact on your newly graduated students (and their higher ed homes)!

There was a lot of great content that inspired new ideas for the attendees – it was definitely worth the investment of time and money 🙂 Thanks for putting on a nicely organized event.

I had a really great experience, and all the sessions were what I expected. The polling feature in the new conferencing system was great.

I’ve been working in higher ed social media since the advent of Facebook pages, so I came into this course with a fair amount of experience. However, I’ve never felt like an “expert.” In the context of a social media focused position (I was formerly a public relations specialist a.k.a. jack of all trades at a small college), I feel much more immediacy for getting our university’s social media presence organized and intentional. And, now I can.
This course helped ground me in strategy and assessment, which are the very elements necessary for impacting departmental and even institutional change. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone who wants to avoid “Can you post this?” status and become a true campus leader for social media.
