Very well done and gave me a lot of information I did not have beforehand. Glad to be able to take back what was taught and look forward to implementing the training into our department.

I\'m not sure what this costs and I\'m not really a social media person, that is the only reason why I\'ve left some questions blank. I would recommend this course for those with interest, but I\'m not sure it\'s beneficial for all or even most officers. There is nothing wrong with the class, it is just a topic for media-driven officers.
The instructor was very good at his job and kept the topic entertaining. I know the topic would be a struggle to get through with a typical instructor.
update: since it wouldn't let me submit without answering all questions, I answered those questions, but I think it should be noted that not answering is a more accurate answer

Good presentation for departments that do not have a current social media page, lots of knowledge was shared that should convince an agency to have a social media page. Instructor was very knowledgeable, even though we already have a page I took some good points to bring back to better our engagement on the page.
