Many large districts have (or would like to have) Social Media Ambassador programs to empower staff members across multiple buildings to create engaging social media content. But who trains those energized educators with the best practices? Andrea can!
This program includes an in-person kickoff to inspire and educate your staff, plus monthly Zoom sessions with content tailored to your team’s specific questions and PD needs. You will also receive seats in #SocialSchool4EDU’s 24/7 membership program! Your program can be completely customized, such as more (or less) in-person sessions or virtual meeting times, as well as the level of topics presented – basic, intermediate, and advanced.
Here’s some feedback from staff members who have been through a customized, district-wide training program with Andrea:
“Everything was helpful. The ideas were great! Reels are a big hit! We have been able to be more focused about what we post.”
“I enjoyed learning how many follow these social media channels and realizing the impact they can have. And I loved learning about algorithms.”
“We learned how Canva can help create engaging content, how to create concise and intentional posts, and how to choose the best photos.”

Andrea Gribble was our primary keynote presenter at the 2023 Missouri School Public Relations Association’s Fall Conference and she was fantastic! We had a wide range of skill levels in the room and she was able to bring those who were fairly new to running their school social media up several notches while providing more sophisticated insights to our savvy veterans. Andrea is high energy, fun, incredibly knowledgeable, and able to keep an audience engaged for more than three hours!
(Plus, she was super fun to sing karaoke with at our evening fun event!)
