So in this video, I'm going to share with you some of my tips as a former higher education administrator working in both colleges, universities, vocational schools, community colleges, etc. and how you can use LinkedIn to find different online teaching positions specific to it and the technology professions. So I wrote a blog post last week that really shared some of my tips for you.
And in this video, I'm going to give you an extra special tip that's not included in the blog post. But I want to make sure to include it because I think it's something that's important. So listen all the way to the end to hear that final tip, it's not included in a blog post.
So the first is to really create a comprehensive LinkedIn profile that complements your resume and highlights all of your existing training and education experience. So in your profile, you want to make sure that you are including any types of training that you have done in the past, whether they are part of your paid positions, or they might be part of volunteer positions as well.

Whether or not it's paid, it doesn't necessarily matter whether or not it's paid. But it does help to show that you're interested in this kind of work that you have some experience doing this kind of stuff that you have experience working with people who are trying to achieve a particular goal. So some things that you might want to consider highlighting with regards to your training experience that you may already have is that if you are you know currently working in it, or you worked at it in the past, and you've done, you've been part of a phase of a software rollout, and part of that software rollout plan, it usually comes a training plan that goes with that. So highlight any pieces of the training plan that you had a part of.
So whether you put you planned out the training sessions, you determine who needed to be in them, you determine what the outcomes of those training sessions needed to be, you determined, you know if there were different types of training sessions that needed to be done based on work roles, things like that. It's not necessarily always just delivering the training session, there's a lot of planning that goes into coming up with the right training as a training plan for the right people in your place, or your place of work.
So make sure you highlight that if you maybe you delivered a workshop for se...
