SGI Webinar Recording: Navigating the ICCR and SGI Websites

Chris Cox

During our November member meeting, we announced our plan to conduct quarterly webinars to educate SGI Members on ICCR issues and processes. At the time, we agreed to start with an orientation of ICCR’s and SGI’s websites. We were fortunate to have Julie Wokaty of ICCR join us to give us a tour of ICCR’s website and Chris Cox to do the same for SGI’s website.

A recording of the webinar can be found here. The slides from Chris’ presentation on using social media for corporate social responsibility are here.

We will maintain an index of webinars and links to the recordings on our Resources page.
