Social media training for government
"Give a Man a Fish, and You Feed Him for a Day.
Teach a Man To Fish, and You Feed Him for a Lifetime"
Janine is a social media and digital specialist, who using her government experience, is dedicated to teaching government agencies the power of social media though her workshops and supporting them through her government social media solutions.
A Deloitte study found that only 34 percent of government organisations surveyed had sufficient skills to execute its digital strategy, and just 33 percent of government employees said they were provided the right resources or opportunities to obtain the digital skills they need.
Janine's social media workshops, which are designed specifically around your organisation’s goals and needs, help break down these barriers. Interactive, engaging and hands-on, these half-day or full-day sessions aim to teach you practical, valuable skills that can be put to use immediately.
Workshops can be done across Australia face-to-face and online (for international departments), and 1:1 mentoring is available.
