The role of mobile and social media for continuing medical events is continuing to evolve. Powerful new mobile, social and collaborative media technologies can extend the CME experience, help you generate larger audiences for your CME and compliment direct and online communications. Using the right mix of mobile, social and digital solutions can enable you to create educational event experiences that last for several weeks or months instead of the usual 1-3 days of the live CME event. Sign up for this FREE webinar to learn about:

• Ideas and best practices to consider when building a game plan for implementing social media for your events;
• Which technology is the best to use before, during and after your event to enhance sharing, communication, collaboration and networking at your event; and
• How to get the maximum return on your social media investments.
