How to Network
Monday, July 7, 2008
(Metropolitan Washington Council, AFL-CIO)
Not sure where to put the photos from your union's July 4 picnic? Want to
create an interactive web-based community for your members without cluttering
your official union site with reader comments? With social networking, workers
who are considering organizing a union at their workplace can join the union
community and learn directly from members what it's all about. Then our "Online
Social Networking" mini-workshop at noon on July 23 at the AFL-CIO is for
you! The workshop – the latest in our new "Labor Websites 101: A Better
Website in 50 Minutes" series of free noontime sessions on how to pump up your
website – will show you how social networking tools can help your members
build their community, see each others' pictures, and keep up to date without
the labor-intensive duties of maintaining an official union website. Come and
find out whether these trendy tools can work for your union--minus the heavy
lifting. FREE but pre-registration is required. Click
