Possible Modules

The exact format used for the students would probably not be the best fit for business people.

We would base any course development on research with the target market. Preferably focus groups and/or in-depth interviews.

Course participants would ideally be surveyed online before the course.

Here are some possible modules. 1. The nature of online networking

and creating realistic objectives.Including what online networking platforms can and cannot accomplish

2. Ethics & guidelines for brands online. Including how to create guidelines, what they should include and how to train staff

3. Creating an objective-based global online brand platform.Including web audit, matrix approach, timing issues and basics of budgeting & ROI of online efforts

4. Managing & monitoring a global online brand platform.Including who does what in terms of staff vs ad agency vs web design firm vs. public relations firm

5. Crisis management and evolving the platform.Including crisis scenario planning, analysis of analytics and monitoring and converting data to actionable knowledge.
