Workshops on social media, working with experts in early 2012

I've got two workshops coming up in early 2012 that are relevant for communicators, and both are in Washington, DC:

• Your 5 best social media resolutions in 2012 is a lunch-and-learn session designed to catch you up on emerging trends in social media, along with tips to help you get more consistent, frequent and effective in your social posts. Just $30, this session takes place on January 10 and includes lunch.
• Be an Expert on Working with Experts is a full-day workshop on February 1, and it focuses on helping communications, fundraising, government affairs and related professionals better understand the policy wonks, subject-matter experts, scientists and engineers they work with--with tactics and materials you can use again and again to do a better job of gaining experts' cooperation when you ask them to communicate with non-expert audiences, from reporters and public audiences to legislators and donors. If you register by January 11, the session is just $300; thereafter, registration is $350. 

Both sessions will take place in downtown DC near the Metro Center stop on the Red Line. Email me at info[at]dontgetcaught[dot]biz with any questions you may have. Bring your team, and share this with your colleagues!
