It goes without saying (but we’re going to say it anyway): Social media is a big part of today’s marketing and promotions efforts. From Facebook to Twitter to Pinterest, the universe of social media options are endless.

Mediabistro’s Social Media Marketing Boot Camp will give you the tools and tricks to make the most of your social media programs. An online conference and workshop, the SMMBC offers the opportunity to learn from experts and network with fellow students. Among the items on tap: Michael Brito, SVP of social business planning at Edelman Digital, will discuss “The Rise of the Social Customer and Their Impact on Business” during his keynote.

Other speakers include Anthony DeRosa, social media editor at Reuters and Megan Berry, senior marketing manager at Klout.
