I enjoyed the content and definitely learned some things I had not previously known. I also realize, as social media sites continue to progress, I need to stay updated on the latest trends.

I thought I was up to date on social media, but this workshop was very helpful in exploring techniques to further protect myself and others online. Highly recommend!

This was my first experience with SST, and I will be sharing this with my department so that more of our Patrol Officers can have this training as it is very advantageous to their roles.

This was a great training! I need to attend the longer session to keep up with what the kids in schools (and my own) are doing on social media. Every school staff member and parent should be aware of this training.

The course was presented in a logical, and easy to understand format.  The presenter kept my attention for the entire duration and was very well focused.  I would highly recommend this course for all those involved in student safety!
