The San Diego chapter of the Society for Technical Communication (STC San Diego) wants you to watch, learn, and share during January Webinar Mania.
At our advanced LinkedIn strategies workshop in October 2015, Marissa Marsala said to join LinkedIn groups and be an active participant. This is one of the best ways to (1) improve your chances of being found on LinkedIn by recruiters and potential clients, (2) meet new people, (3) grow your network, and (4) re-connect with friends and colleagues.
In response to Marissa’s call to action, STC San Diego will host our first-ever Webinar Mania event. Here’s how it works:
1. Watch a free, on-demand webinar any time between 12 AM, January 1, 2016, and 11:59 PM, January 31, 2016.
2. Discuss the webinar on STC San Diego’s LinkedIn group: https://www.linkedin.com/groups/1871038/profile.
When you start a new discussion on STC San Diego’s LinkedIn group about a webinar you watched, we will enter your name in a drawing to win a $25 Amazon gift card. The winner will be announced at STC San Diego’s February 9 chapter meeting at Kilowatt Brewing.
