The seminar is taking place in Berlin from 28th to 29th August 2014.

  • Strategies for achieving relevant results with limited funding
  • Reviewing and evaluating platforms in social media
  • Advanced strategies for successful campaigning
  • Measuring the effectiveness of social media in public institutions
  • Using social media for academic networking and knowledge exchange

And will provide practical solutions for communication experts dealing with social media in public institutions for their daily work. High level experts will address the common pitfalls and show new creative ways how to handle them in practice. The training will help participants to bring their institution on a higher level of communication. The practical solutions that participants will receive at this event are based on the experience of acknowledged international social media gurus:

  • Dana Manescu, Head of Sector - Social Media, European Commission
