Not sure what "social networking" means?
Online social networking involves connecting and sharing information with other people via the Internet. Social networking Web sites such as LinkedIn and Facebook offer different ways to interact and can help you get the most out of your DMEC membership.
LinkedIn is a business-oriented social networking site that allows you to strengthen and extend your existing network of professional contacts. Becoming a member of DMEC's members-only LinkedIn group will identify you as a DMEC member and serve as proof of your credentials. With LinkedIn you can:
- Get introduced to other professionals through the people you know
- Read (and discuss) the latest industry news and legislative updates
- Establish your self as a subject expert
- Find potential clients
- Make yourself available for business opportunities
- Decide how often you want to receive updates on news and discussions by email
To learn more and sign up for your free account visit the LinkedIn web site. Then join the DMEC group and start connecting.
Facebook allows you to create a personal profile complete with photos, links, videos and other information you may want to share with friends, colleagues and former classmates. Facebook gives you the opportunity to get to know other DMEC members on a more personal level and to interact in a more casual way. DMEC's page on Facebook isn't all play, though—there are updates, event listings, and more.
