The social media course was fantastic! Chris Lewis is very well-schooled on current social media formats from facebook to hootsuite. Shannon Bouchie at NOBL put together this course specifically for real estate agents in Pictou County. This specialized course proved to be very interesting as I worked alongside my competitors yet expecting to achieve the same result: Marketing exposure through social media. This course helped me create a business page on fb, connect to twitter, google and hootsuite. Can’t wait for the new courses to start . - Denise White
