I was amazed at what I didn't know before I entered the program! SMMU provided an incredible overview as well as specific tips and tricks of all the social media sites. I feel like I have a very good understanding of how it all works now and have seen my business begin to track upward since beginning the course.

Christine McIsaac
Marketing Consultant / Smart Solutions Group
I am a marketing major at a large university in Florida. Before my social media marketing training courses with SMMU, I didn't know very much about social media and my university does not have a social media class... most of my knowledge about social media came from the courses I took at SMMU.
Sarinis Chu
Student / University of Central Florida
The emphasis on how all of social media works together and the need for a strategy was really defined in the program.
Russell Gonnering
President / Emergent Health Strategies
Every course was designed and instructed with top-notch information, making it an exciting experience within each module! I am so thankful for the opportunity to be SMMU Certified and looking forward to the opportunities that being a 'Specialist' consists of.

The session on LinkedIn was the most relevant. It seems to be the least intuitive resource and having such clear steps and purposes defined will help not only me but my clients as well.
