Self-Guided Social Media Training

• Social learning is a concept that has become popular within the education and business world.

• Learning no longer has to occur within the four walls of a classroom as it was traditionally done.

• Social learning erases the classroom walls, and the exchange of information can happen in various environments such as a café, online chat or a social outing.

• Social learning enables a group of three or more people to come together to share knowledge and learn from one another.

• Social learning builds confidence, communication, and problem-solving skills. The world of technology provides numerous tools that bring individuals together to create and maintain a social learning environment.
