Well based on feedback I got, the college has decided to break out the course into 2 separate workshops that can be taken separately or together. So if you are a complete newbie to social media, but have no interest in blogging, you can take 'Intro to Social Media'. If you are already somewhat comfortable with social media and have your own Facebook page, but would love to start your own blog, you can take 'Learn to Blog'. Both workshops will be casual, very hands-on and lots of fun!
They both take place on Saturday mornings in May for 3 hours each at Red River College in Winnipeg. Please spread to word to anyone you know who might be interested!
Here are the full workshop details and links to register:
