Hi everyone,

I'm exploring the intersection of social media and education and would love some career advice. What skills or experiences have you found most valuable in this niche? How can one effectively build a career focused on educational content through social media?

Any tips or insights from your own journey would be greatly appreciated!

Hi alexperry,

Great question! I’ve been working in social media within the education sector for a few years now, and here are a few things that have really helped me:

  1. Content Creation Skills: Being able to create engaging content—whether it’s videos, infographics, or blog posts—is key. Educational content needs to be both informative and interesting to capture attention.

  2. Understanding Educational Needs: It’s important to understand the unique needs of educational institutions or learners. This helps in tailoring content that resonates with your audience.

  3. Networking: Building connections with educators and professionals in both the social media and education fields has been invaluable. Networking can open doors to new opportunities and collaborations.


Thank you so much for the valuable advice! I appreciate the tips on content creation and networking—definitely something I'll focus on.

I also wanted to ask if you could recommend any certifications that might be beneficial for my career in social media and education? I'm looking to strengthen my skills and make myself more competitive in the field.


Glad you found the advice helpful!

Regarding certifications, I’d suggest considering the Fortinet FCP - FortiClient EMS 7.2 Administrator (FCP_FCT_AD-7.2) certification. Even though it’s not directly related to social media, having a certification in cybersecurity and network management can be a huge asset. It broadens your skill set and opens up more job opportunities, especially if you're looking to expand beyond social media.

Having such certifications can significantly enhance your resume and make you a more competitive candidate in various tech-related roles.

Best of luck with your career growth!


Thank you for the suggestion! I’m definitely interested in exploring the Fortinet FCP_FCT_AD-7.2 certification.

Could you recommend any good books, practice questions, or study guides for preparing for this certification? I’m looking for reliable resources to help me get ready effectively.


For preparing for the Fortinet FCP_FCT_AD-7.2 certification, I recommend checking out the official Fortinet website. They have a range of resources, including study guides and exam details, which can be very helpful.

Additionally, you might want to look into PrepBolt. They offer excellent study material and practice questions specifically for Fortinet FCP - FortiClient EMS 7.2 Administrator certification. I used their resources for my own preparation, and found their practice questions to be quite accurate and helpful.

Hope these resources help you in your preparation. Best of luck with your studies!
