Social Media Education and Training for Business
Unlike for example in the IT world, where for example Cisco and Microsoft, offer accredited training through training partners to defined standards. In most cases trainers have no accreditation from Facebook, Twiiter, YouTube and in fairness, in lots of cases there are no accreditations from these websites for them to get.
So Social Media training is usually from people in other areas of expertise, Marketing, PR, Business, Sales and other areas, who have used Social Media, usually from an early point in its development and developed their own training programs.
Just because it is a different situation, does not mean that there are not leaders and excellent trainers with great courses, so check them out and ask for referals from previous attendees.
