Who is this for: the self-employed, small to medium size business, people serious about their career and people in job transition.
 

LinkedIn.com is a powerful on-line business networking resource based on the idea of "6 degrees of separation" and has a global community. This class is useful for increasing your business, sales and enhancing your career. I will assume that you have signed up for Linkedin, filled out your basic profile and successfully connected to at least one other person. You may bring a laptop if it can run on batteries during the class. If you bring a laptop it is asked that you pay close attention and not fall behind in the class by being distracted by other items on-line.

This is a fast paced class and is offered in a 3-hour, more thorough version for companies on-site.

Please come early to be ready to start on time.
