Yesterday was presentation day for me at EMS Expo. I gave two presentations. 1) Trends in Online Education and 2) Social Media and Networking for Training and Administration. This was the first time I presented either topic. Some segments of each presentation I had given before.
The morning session – online education trends – began at 0830. I was impressed at the number of people that attended given the early start time, especially for the early start time. Audience questions primarily revolved around my comments about the relevance of accreditation and student creation of social media content and uploading it to websites like YouTube or Flickr. Remember you can view a PDF of my slides at EPS411.com/emsexpo2009.
My afternoon session about social media had less people, but many were repeats from the morning session. Overall I felt like I did not know what the audience needed/wanted to hear and I am not sure if the audience knew what they needed. The most significant question was “what happens if your social media efforts are too successful?” This is the first time I have been asked this question. Typically I am asked about how to start a social media presence. Next year I hope to be able to answer this question. Meanwhile, get started with a social media presence. If your efforts have a positive impact on your organization keep doing it. If your efforts don’t work stop doing it.
