Loughborough staff and Regional Managers from across the country gathered at Burleigh Court to learn how to make the most of Facebook and Twitter.
The team are going to use their new skills to share the new vision of Triathlon England, and help everyone Discover, Enjoy and Achieve!
The day started with an informal chat with Ian Howard, President of British Triathlon, who was keen to share his knowledge and experience. It was a great opportunity for Ian Howard to meet the team. Jenny Vincent, Regional Manager for the South East said "It was lovely to meet Ian and to learn more about his role and his day to day work. It is great to know that British Triathlon is in safe hands!"
This was swiftly followed by a Communications update and discussion on future plans and activities by Joe Harkin. The staff were then tasked to write an article to be posted on the website to make sure they could use this method of communication effectively. Jon Train, Regional Manager of London echoed Jenny Vicents comments and added "It's been a really enjoyable two days of training and I look forward to putting the skills learnt into practice".
Hopefully the information the team has received will ensure an effective and consistent approach to social media and communicating with members and the wider triathlon community!
