About the Course

Though the concept of personal branding isn't new, questions remain about how to create one and, more importantly, what it means to maintain and inhabit that brand. Learners will: o Understand both what personal branding means and what it means to inhabit their brand o Establish themselves on at least three social media platforms o Create a mission statement for their personal brand o Build a board of directors for their brand o Become familiar with the basics of digital security and reputation management o Create a system for on-going brand maintenance Join instructor Kimberley R. Barker as she provides a warm, supportive atmosphere in which learners are encouraged to intensively explore themselves in order to create a personal brand that authentically and effectively communicates their values and professional gifts. Together we will build a strong community in which to provide encouragement and feedback, and support each other as learners pursue their goal of successful brand creation....

Buen curso, me quedó muy claro el tema del personal branding, su desarrollo e implicaciones. Lo único que no me gustó esque mucho del contenido está muy desactualizado.

The teacher is great, but the content is vague. The course just teaches the framework of personal branding. Students still have to find their own ways to implement it.

The first part was very interesting, but as the course advanced it turned to be kind of boring. I do learned a lot of interesting things about personal branding.

This course is very helpful for those just starting out on Personal Branding. For those well on their way, this course provided very little new information.

Good course, however videos and materials quality was rather mediocre and I would prefer to have a liitle more professional approach with good reasoning.

The Course was interesting. I finished it the same night. I think it could've had more marketing tricks and hacks included. Thanks for the Journey :)

the course is good for the basic information. I think it should be updated as it is very old and the information and techniques have changed a lot.

The course is good! But a little bit more on social media. It will be better if we can learn more about tactics and methods of personal branding.

A bit too generic, it gives you just the basis. Moreover, most of the articles are obsolete (one dates back to 2009!) and some didn't even work.

El curso no es tan mal pero algunas sesiones son un poco obvias y bastante intuitivas. Conocimiento al que puedes acceder en cualquier buscador

Course was very informal. The instructor was very casual, light, engaging, natural. Attending the 'class' was like watching a personal blog.

A lot of words and emotions but little practical knowledge and structure. I would say that this course is about online presence, not branding.

The content could be more interesting. More practice questions could be given and the number of the questions in quiz should have been more.

Perhaps it’ll be much better if the way of lecturing delivers more professionally. It also captures who you are tho’

Esperava algo mais especifico, mais profundo, mas para uma introdução, conseguiu demostrar bons direcionamentos.

Great course to reboot your online presence. It would be even better if it included more practical assignments.
