AAMSE EDWeb: Social Media and Medical Societies

Registration is now open for the AAMSE EDWeb, "Social Media and Medical Societies," to be held Thursday, December 17, from 1 to 2:30 p.m. Central Time.

Social media sites are a tool - not a solution - and just as with any tool, if not used properly they can cause much more damage than good. This webinar will not only give you step-by-step directions on how to create a blog and set up your own pages on sites like Facebook and Twitter, but will also teach you how to effectively communicate with your membership and work towards your association's mission.

Don't miss this opportunity to learn how to position your medical society in the new digital landscape.

Intended Audience: Mid-level medical society executives through CEOs who are developing or starting a social media strategy for their organization.

  1. Easy-to-follow step-by-step instructions on how to create a blog and pages on sites such as Facebook and Twitter.
  2. The proper way to use different types of social media.
  3. How these tools can be used as additional member benefits.
