Education
Colleges and Universities stand to benefit from the use of Social Media for marketing, course delivery and building relationships with staff and alumni.
Young people deciding where to study after school, and adult learners with a thirst for knowledge, both fit the profile of regular social media and social networking users and contributors. Properly used, Social Media Marketing can be used to reach potential students more interactively and add value in a way impossible through conventional advertising and PR.
For course development, delivery and student support, social media offers a place where help, guidance and peer support can become part of students’ every day life, using familiar tools and services. Blogs and wikis can be an outlet for discussion and knowledge sharing.
Social Media Tools can also be used to keep alumni and staff connected with the activity of the college or university on a regular basis - you go to them rather than them coming to you.
