Social Media
Communication using Social Media
15 July 2010, 09:00AM - 15 July 2010, 17:00PM
Thursday 15 July 2010 in Birmingham
• Would you like new ways to communicate with groups and communities you support?
• Do you want to find and try out different ways to reach your volunteers?
• Have you heard of social media or read about Facebook and Twitter, but not known how to apply them in development of local organisations and volunteer groups?
If you're a development worker in a local support and development organisation helping small groups, or you provide support and advice in a volunteer centre then this workshop is for you!
There's a lot of talk about 'social media', some hype about how useful it is and a seemingly endless and growing list of social networking websites to try out.
Good use of social media can offer ways to strengthen how development workers work with local groups, how organisations reach volunteers, or help communities campaign more effectively. Not considering use of this technology could mean organisations and volunteer centres miss out on its use to support development and help volunteer led projects & groups.
This workshop is part of a series being run for development workers in local support organisations and for staff in local volunteer centres that will:
• Help you place social media in the context of your organisation development work role,
• Consider guidelines for responsible use of social media websites,
• Give you knowledge about a wide range of current social media tools available,
• Feature a practical social media surgery to help build confidence in use of social media websites and show how you can help local groups benefit from them too.
The workshops are being delivered by the NAVCA ICT Champions and Red Foundation as part of the Capacitybuilders' Modernising Volunteering & Regional ICT Champions work.
Cost £35 per person, including VAT
Booking

You can also download and complete a booking form (Word, 615KB) and return it to events@navca.org.uk
