Dear Campus Communicators, You may have heard that LinkedIn has recently created an “add-to-profile" program to help colleges and universities keep in touch with students and alumni. The program is making it easier for universities to invite their graduates to showcase their degree on their LinkedIn profile by simply clicking a button. Here are the directions to create a button for your college, department or degree program: https://addtoprofile.linkedin.com/ The alumni office will be adding an “add-to-profile” button on many of our digital communications tools as well as pushing it through social media. We hope this will encourage more of our alumni to associate themselves with UT on LinkedIn. We encourage you to do the same thing with your college or department. Here are some ideas for distributing your button: * Include the add-to-profile button on your college or department website * Include the button in your digital newsletter * Post the link on social media— LinkedIn will generate this link for you once you create the button For more information, here is an article about the program: http://chronicle.com/blogs/wiredcampus/linkedin-expands-efforts-to-help-colleges-keep-in-touch-with-students-and-alumni/56171 Thanks!
