    Very good class. Only thing missing was info on how to craft attention-getting posts. Would have been helpful to spend an hour on content.

    It was a great in-depth class that is definitely influenced by the level of participation from your other class mates. Depending on how involved or distracting they are, it can move from great to awesome or great to good. Definitely really enjoyed the instructor who went through everything step by step!

    As a member of the Silent Generation I found Social Media counter-intuitive ,difficult to learn and non-substantive. Chris, in his one day Bootcamp described social media with clarity, conviction and a positive attitude toward the subject that was quite an eye opener for me. He created a great foundation and gave me the basic building blocks to understanding the whys and hows of social media. I’m looking forward to using this new found knowledge in both my business and personal life.

    Learned some valuable information around how to measure the success/impact of a social media strategy - but nothing on how to actually build a strong strategy/campaign. This felt disconnected and disorganized - I would have loved to walk away with a better understanding of the full picture.

    The instructor, Chris Gee, was very informative and thorough regarding the course's content. He was receptive to any questions students had and he knew how to engage the class. Also, the staff at General Assembly were very nice and welcoming to myself and the other students. The Social Media Bootcamp course might be long but at 7-8 hours but it's a class well worth taking.
