Responsible Use of Social Media

Social media connects employees with colleagues, customers, suppliers and partners, but most content on these platforms is personal data and needs handling accordingly. This 30-minute course helps staff recognise the benefits and risks, use platforms safely and professionally, and comply with the company's social media policy.
The line between a personal account and a professional identity has effectively disappeared, and a post made privately can become a regulatory matter within hours. Financial promotions rules also reach social content in ways staff rarely anticipate. Clear training protects both the individual and the organisation, and is considerably easier than managing the aftermath of a post that should never have been made.

Hear from our customers
They listened to our needs and helped tailor the existing course to our organisation with ease, ensuring accessibility requirements were maintained and the training was engaging and presentable. All their help was been very appreciated and I couldn't have asked them to do any more for us. I would recommend Skillcast to anyone looking to bring in new training modules to their organisation.
