Grow Your Professional Network!

May 28th, 2012

Social media provides many different ways to stay connected, but many still have trouble shaking the impression that it is only valuable for social connections.  The truth is that social media pages like Facebook may have started this way, but now allows users to communicate with other dietitians across the country and the world, and expand their professional network.  We have included TONS of Facebook and Twitter links below to help you get started, or help you find new organizations to follow.  You do not have to sign up to look at these pages, but you do have to sign up if you want to join the conversation.  If you have questions about social media – please contact us at socialmedia@eatrightutah.org, we are happy to help.

The more pages you follow, the more people you can connect with – and we want to hear from you!  Leave the links to the pages you follow in the comments below.  Do you have your own Facebook and Twitter pages?  Tell us about those too!
