Jan. 2002London, England, United KingdomToday's tech-savvy students have grown up with internet enabled devices in their hands. That means that in addition to the support they'll get from teachers, parents and school careers leads - websites and apps are increasingly at the heart of how they choose the next steps in their education as they progress towards the exciting world of work. For many students, Snapchat, Instagram, WhatsApp, Twitter and others, are at the heart of how they communicate - but the time comes when they need to gradually transition from 'fun social networking' to 'professional social networking'. It means building new online communication skills and learning how to project themselves to future employers in the best possible light. LinkedIn expert Philip Calvert is an experienced speaker in schools, and in this short guide shares valuable tips and strategies for students on how to get to grips with LinkedIn - including how to create a compelling profile, the right and wrong ways to engage with people, how to network with other users, where to find information on universities, companies and businesses - and much more. In many countries, you can now join LinkedIn at the age of sixteen, so this guide is designed to help today’s school and university students to see beyond the cat videos, beyond the selfies and the filtered stories, to discover powerful technology that will support their career choices, help them to find the job of their dreams and to learn the skills and best practice of Online Social Networking. For teachers and careers leaders, a knowledge of LinkedIn will give you the confidence to highlight to today’s tech-savvy students how it can support them in their university and career choices. You can also use LinkedIn in support of your implementation of the Gatsby Benchmarks or regional equivalent. Training available at your school or university.
