We offer several ways for you to reduce your costs: 

1. Invite colleagues to share your screen with you for the Webinar and share the cost. We charge by the connection, not the number of people at your end. (We do ask that you all focus on one topic / behaviour change to 'workshop' so that you don’t take more than your share of discussion time.)

2. Students and NGOs can apply for free Webinars. We offer a limited number of free “seats” at each seminar. For details click here.

3. Corporate pricing is available if you are purchasing ten or more workshop connections at a time (e.g. ten computers for one webinar, or five computers for two webinars) Contact our registrar or call 1-800262-0934 x3.

Tools of Change,
our social marketing toolkit  

To date, roughly 95% of participants have said they would either definitely (55%) or probably (40%) take another session this year and would recommend the sessions to their colleagues. 

• I participated in a number of Tools of Change webinars with several of my campaign consultants, and enjoyed the format. The sessions reinforced the direction and tactics we've taken with our campaign so far and provided food for thought. It was great having my campaign consultants on the calls with me to help ensure that our team is in step on the latest thinking around community-based social marketing.

• I participated in a webinar with 10 of my graduate students, who are enrolled in an Advanced Diploma program in Integrated Coastal and Ocean Management. The students had done some CBSM last term with another instructor, thus this proved to be a good review for them. They liked the format and the organization, and that they could discuss with their group and ask questions if they so wished. In our program the students quickly learn that we do not manage the environment we can only manage human behavior. The webinar will help students promote behavior changes and identify barriers to community participation that are not obvious at first glance. This is an important lesson as many work in international settings or in cultures that are unique.

Other comments from our confidential post-webinar evaluations include the following: 

• "Better than a typical conference session - more interactive, more really interested folks."

• "The Highlights Series is a great way to learn. Whether or not a specific webinar is on your topic of work, you can still generalize the information. Makes social marketing concepts come alive." 

• "It gave me a chance to explore community change processes for a different set of behaviours than I usually get involved in."

• Great introductory course.. good examples...   I would highly recommend it. "

• "Very informative, with layered insight on several levels."

• "Valuable information and an easy-to-follow format."

• "Informative and fun ..you can  ask questions easily and get answers as fast." 

• " I appreciated the use of examples and participants own input to move the lessons along while building on the theory."

• "I plan to urge all my co-workers to participate in these webinars."

•  "You can learn at your own desk for a fraction of what you'd pay going to an out-of-town workshop or seminar."

  
  

“Jay is one of the finest workshop leaders I have worked with during my many years of involvement with training and capacity-building.  He has a deep understanding of and passion for social marketing. He illustrates points using relevant, real world examples drawn from his rich experience and case study collection. In addition, he knows how to engage participants in a meaningful, fun and enlightening manner. His workshop opened our eyes and provided us with great tools to work with afterwards. I have since recommended it to many colleagues.”

"The workshop was exceptional for us in a number of ways. It got team members from different parts of the country, people who hadn’t met face-to-face before, talking about common issues using the same 'language', exchanging best practices, and working together more effectively afterwards. Those with a marketing background learned to apply their expertise in new ways, while those who were novices got a strong introduction. Although we received a lot of information, the course actually felt light at the same time. The bottom line? While we obviously can't attribute it to the workshop alone, our team's performance continued to increase rapidly afterwards."

“Takes the concept of environmental citizenship and brings it down to earth.  One of the most practical, action-oriented workshops available on the topic.”

Our workshops are based on the Tools of Change workbook and website

Workbook: Covers environmental topics. View or order it on-line from Renouf Publishing.   After entering the bookstore, use the Search button at the top to search for the title 'Tools of Change'.

Website: Covers environmental, health and safety topics. www.toolsofchange.com 

“The Tools of Change website is an invaluable resource for those planning a community-based social marketing project. The site provides an online guide to assist with the development of projects.  This guide can be tailored so that the provided examples are highly relevant to the program being designed.  Finally, the site provides in-depth case studies that demonstrate the utility of community-based social marketing tools. Highly recommended.”

"I surveyed my students and they loved using Tools of Change. Planning their own outreach programs made the course more than just an academic exercise. In particular, I found the planning guide extremely effective … I know I wouldn't have gotten such good program proposals without Tools of Change. In my use of it over time, I expect there to be a small army of environmental science students better equipped to deal with human behavior."

Rick Chenoweth, who uses the website in his graduate course on human behavior and environmental planning at the University of Wisconsin
