Webinar session time: 12:00pm – 1:00pm ET

The Social Marketing in Transportation Certificate course is an online, live training utilizing live instruction, questions, projects and live breakout groups to work on specific projects in teams. Most of the following sessions are one-hour instructor-led, highly interactive virtual training. The sessions will be recorded for viewing by course participants who are unable to attend a particular session or wish to review the content.

Additional assignments outside of the class time are designed to reinforce the material and will be helpful to you in creating an effective social marketing plan for your organization.
