Futurecamp Findings

As our first semester at humberpr comes to an end we sit here in social media class and reflect on what we have learnt. The class was all atwitter as discussions began.

It is interesting to see how far we have all come; now using social media to its maximum to help us add value wherever our PR careers take us and begin building networks that will help us in the future.

It all comes back to a quote from one of our instructors on the first day of school:
"It is okay to be a B student, but be an A+ networker"

The more I learn about social media the more I learn that it is a great platform to get me the coveted A+ grade. By engaging with coversations with people in the PR industry through Twitter, blog comments, etc. and adding value through your own opinion and knowledge in given areas it can link you with people you would otherwise never have the chance to interact with.

To check out what fellow 1C students have to say check out Caitlin's blog for some 10 second interviews.
