Where is it held?
It’s a cliche but we do like the term “in the comfort of your own home”, don’t you? This is an online course, so all you need is internet access and you choose the location. So you can do the course in your PJs if you wish! Or you may choose to study at a local library, at work or elsewhere.
How does it work?
The Zestee Social Media School runs as a 12 week program and it’s highly recommended (and most economical) to follow the whole course. This is flexible and you can decide how long to dedicate each week to your study. We would suggest putting aside at least 2 hours a week, though you may wish to do more. Each Sunday, you will be emailed your lesson plan for that week. You will also be invited to join a private online Facebook group for direct access to your trainer/s and other students.
At some point during each week, the trainer/s will be available online for a one hour live chat in the Facebook group. You will receive details on this after signing up. It’s not a problem if the set time doesn’t suit you though – you can catch up by reading through the online conversation later in the week if you wish. You can also ask questions and chat with other students online at any time during the week, with many questions being answered immediately and others taking a little longer but usually within 24 hours.
Each module will cover a different social media school topic (click for the full schedule).
