This year also welcomes a new partnership with CanadaHelps.org and they're MyCharityConnects training. MyCharityConnects will offer a beginners level training that covers the basics of social media for those just getting started on their online engagement. This "101" training will provide critical first steps for non-profits, and allow STT to focus on a Masters Level offering that delivers higher level strategy and in depth tools to those who are ready to take their online engagement to the next level.
Together, MyCharityConnects and Social Tech Training will for the backbone of a weeklong offering at Toronto's MaRS Centre of Innovation that runs from June 7th all the way through June 12th. Registration begins later in March, so stay tuned for more details and announcements.
"The magic of Web of Change is its ability to get you to immediately to drop into authentic, high-trust conversations with people you've just met and have so much to offer. That's such a rare and precious gift, and I give thanks for it every time I think of Web of Change. Which is pretty often."
