Seminar description

Taught by Bob McIntosh, one of LinkedIn’s Top Voices, this seminar addresses the three major components of LinkedIn.

• Creating a powerful profile
• Building a focused network, and
• Engaging with one’s connections.

It is hands-on, with short readings and videos to reinforce the lessons. By having a strong profile and network, we demonstrate how to use LinkedIn to find employment.

It is interactive, e.g., participants revise their own profile, actively connect with 10-15+ LinkedIn members, engage with people on LinkedIn, and more. Participants are evaluated on their discussion and work they do on LinkedIn.

Bonus: Each participant receives a LinkedIn profile critique from either Bob McIntosh or Jim Peacock, who have reviewed hundreds of profiles over the years. This alone is valued at $150.

As a career coach, advisor, or career service provider, it is critical that you have a strong profile and a good understanding of how to use LinkedIn in career development. This seminar is designed to help you, help your students/clients better understand the power of LinkedIn in career development.
