"Across our nation, law enforcement has suffered from a lack of leadership in pro-actively protecting our people from the dangers of social media. Too many public employees have paid the price for not receiving the tools to navigate social media safely. After auditing Mark Fiedelholtz’s Social Media Liability Course with our fire chief, we decided to mandate this training to every member of our teams. If you want to protect your people and your department, I strongly recommend this course."

99% of social media policies from reputable sources are not written by social media law experts like me, and courts rule that these policies contain unconstitutionally vague language and aren't enforced with outside expert social media liability training for all employees.

Verbal Warnings.PNG
