This course is designed for charity professionals, volunteers or trustees who:
- Have responsibility for the day-to-day management of their charity’s digital communications
- Have a good understanding of how social media platforms including Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and websites work (this is not a beginner course)
- Have the support of senior leadership to innovate the way your charity uses digital to engage your audience
- Are passionate about learning new strategies and ideas to strengthen your digital communications and help your charity stand out online
- Can dedicate 3-5 hours a week over three weeks between 4-22 July 2022
- Have not attended previous Digital Spring/Summer Schools run by Media Trust
- Represent a charity whose work supports, campaigns and advocates for women and girls
Each week of the course is designed to build on the previous week. Participants will gain from the continuity of working with the same group members for peer-to-peer learning and support in their small group mentoring sessions. Therefore, individual participants need to commit to attending the full three weeks. Where this isn’t possible for a particular session because of holidays, caring responsibilities and/or heavy workloads, you can nominate another colleague from your organisation to attend in your place.

Our commitment to equalities and inclusion
Digital Summer School is open to charities that support women and girls, including and in particular those from underrepresented backgrounds e.g. lesbian and bi women, trans women, disabled women and women of colour.
At Media Trust, we proudly work to ensure our programme and event environments feel safe, supportive and inclusive for all of those taking part. And we ask that partners and participants help us to do the same.
