Pre-requisite: This class addresses social media MANAGEMENT, rather than how to use social media. It is expected that students have a basic familiarity with Facebook, Linkedin, Google+, and Twitter. (Pinterest, Instagram, and other social sites are optional.) If you do not already have accounts in these major sites, we recommend that you take the Core Competency in Social Media for Business Success preparatory class.
