Description

You will need a laptop computer for this session.

 

Special Update: John Hill from LinkedIn's headquarters office will be a guest speaker! John currently holds the job title of “Higher Education Evangelist” for LinkedIn. With a background as the Director of Michigan State University’s Career Center, you won’t want to miss hearing John share inside tips on how to make LinkedIn an even better tool for you and your clients.

 

At this point, LinkedIn certainly isn’t new to you. You are most likely using it and teaching this tool to your clients/students. You recognize that it has become a critical part of networking, career exploration and, of course, job search. If you like the tool, and want to explore even more of its’ potential, then how about joining us for this engaging, hands-on lab session?

 

Topics to Be Covered:

  • Enhance your own profile. Do you have a summary? Are you posting regular updates? Have you thought about your own keywords? Are you positioning yourself for your next career move?
  • Utilize LinkedIn, even more, for your job as a career professional. Have you used LinkedIn yet for your own job? Are you connected to the best possible groups? Have you ever used it to find guest speakers for your programs?
  • Learn how to run a successful LinkedIn Lab workshop. Do you know what to include when teaching LinkedIn in a group setting? How can you make your workshop interactive, fun and engaging? There is so much you could include, but what is most important?

We'll address these three areas in a highly interactive and hands-on way, while you are logged into your own LinkedIn profile.
