Social Media and Illinois Ag Leadership Program

Chuck Zimmerman

Illinois Ag Leadership ProgramToday the current class of the Illinois Agricultural Leadership Program will be having a Media Relations Seminar in Chicago. Yours truly was supposed to be presenting a session on “Social Media From The Ag Perspective” but pneumonia canceled that. However, good friend and social media man Andy Vance, ABN, is on the scene for me. So to help him out we’d love it if you would post your twitter thoughts and comments on this topic to the #IALP hashtag.

The Illinois Agricultural Leadership Program (IALP) is an extensive business education and training program for agricultural producers and employees of agri-businesses. Through a series of in-state and travel seminars, participants interact with a myriad number of business, organization, elected, and educational leaders.

Post Update: Thanks again to Andy Vance for conducting today’s social media session. He covered a lot more than just Twitter but there were still over 90 tweets posted to #IALP during his session. Thank you to all who participated.
