About Us

Our Story

Social Weaver was founded in 2015 to provide cutting edge, practical training to clients who want to improve their sustainability, reach and impact. We’ve delivered successful media training for clients spanning newsrooms, NGOs, universities and small businesses, and we’d love to work with you too.

After attending any of our training sessions you’ll be better informed and better equipped to make use of effective social media strategies and tools that will bring you closer to achieving your objectives.

On our courses you can expect to learn:

  • Why digital media matters and why you can no longer afford to ignore it
  • How to engage with and grow your digital media audiences
  • How to produce and promote effective digital media content
  • How to use free tools to monitor, measure and refine your efforts

We offer highly customisable training so as to provide exactly the kind of input our clients need. On request, all of our courses can be adapted or combined and run over longer periods if required.
