What can you expect to learn?

  • What a good LinkedIn profile contains.
  • How to communicate most effectively on LinkedIn.
  • Which types of content work best.
  • Guidelines about appropriate behaviour on social media.

What do you get out of participation?
The course equips you to become (more) active on LinkedIn. It will help you to:

  • Find and interesting contacts and add them to your network.
  • Draw attention to your work and your workplace among your peers, foundations,
    (potential) collaborative partners and your network in general.
  • Profile your knowledge and participate in debates within your area or field of work.
  • Become part of an informal LinkedIn network with colleagues from the entire faculty.

What do we expect form you?
We expect that you have already created a profile on LinkedIn and that you will participate actively in the course as you create actual postings on LinkedIn together with your colleagues.

Presence on LinkedIn is one of the faculty's areas of focus, but your LinkedIn profile is entirely your own, and we do not interfere in what or how often you post on it. You should primarily participate in the course and be active on LinkedIn for your own sake.
