May 4th: Training Social Media “Sub-Connect!”

On May 4th, Michael O’Connell, Training Specialist at the Detroit Board of Ethics, will lead a robust discussion regarding the use of social media in the work of COGEL agencies.  What are the pros and cons?  What are the challenges you have faced in using social media at your office and how did you tackle them?  If your agency is new to using social media, what are best practices you should know?

All COGEL members are welcome to join this session, but it may be especially helpful for those in the COGEL training community.  Please join us for this informal and interactive online conversation to figure out your next steps, if any, in the effective use of social media.
