WEBINAR DESCRIPTION

Do you have a policy regarding social networking on the job?  A thorough social media policy is needed to emphasize the importance of using time and resources wisely as well as protecting an employer's reputation and confidential information.  With the infatuation of social media on the rise, the time is now to have a proper policy in place.
