“Social media” is an umbrella term for a number of online communicative platforms intended to help businesses and individuals better interact with one another in a virtual environment. Social media programs and courses teach students how to help companies utilize social media channels to their benefit.

Summer courses allow students to take classes and earn academic credit hours during the summertime, when most students are on break. Many schools offer seasonal courses to help students move through their educational programs faster and to gain important skills and knowledge.
