Brief Description: This course is designed to provide knowledge and skills to use social media tools and techniques &nb

Full Description: Description:
This eight-hour performance-level course is designed to provide
participants with the knowledge and skills to use social media tools and techniques for intermediate-level messaging, strategy, and increased situational awareness. This course builds upon the existing PER-304 Social Media Applications for Disaster Management course by providing participants with a more in-depth training in the use of strategy, tools, and messaging techniques for social media. It goes beyond the
implementation of the most popular tools and strategies and helps social media managers expand their organization’s social media presence in various platforms to different audiences, in partnership with other
agencies and organizations. This course will also give participants a
better understanding of data mining and crowdsourcing techniques through practical activities and discuss potential uses for data
visualization and mobile apps. 
Participants will participate in group discussion and activities throughout the course that reinforce the use of social media tools for disaster
management. In these activities, participants will apply their knowledge of the presented materials to build up to the final facilitator-led
comprehensive activity.
