Navigate social media at work with confidence and security. Learn to protect your privacy, identify threats, and use platforms responsibly.
Social networking is becoming ubiquitous and a recent survey notes 22% of time spent online is associated with social networking activities. Since many workers use social media to promote business and network with other professions, social networking is now also a workplace concern. Facebook scams were the most common form of malware distribution in a recent survey and over 31 million false Facebook accounts exist according to one report. False accounts have been used to connect for purposes of gaining access to systems or gain information on the victim’s other contacts and connections.
This course will review different types of social media, review expectations of privacy, explain the risks of social media and provide ideas on how we can protect ourselves while using this technology.

Provincial regulators of CPAs in Canada do not require that independent providers of CPD be approved to offer courses. Instead, individual CPAs are responsible for assessing whether a CPD activity meets their requirements, and may take activities from any source provided those requirements are met.
Every course offered on LearnFormula is delivered by a qualified subject matter expert or learning organization, and advances learning objectives that are relevant to the responsibilities or professional competencies of Canadian CPAs. All activities on LearnFormula are quantifiable in terms of hours, and are also verifiable, in that users receive documented evidence of their attendance via a certificate of completion after finishing a course (and this certificate is stored by LearnFormula indefinitely). Nearly 100,000 Canadian CPAs successfully satisfy their CPD requirements via LearnFormula on an annual basis.
