The panel will include the likes of Kudzi Chikumbu and Oresti Patricios.
“I will be talking about digital skills which are broad and most people only think about content creation when they think social media, but there’s also data and analytics which is where the answers are for all your questions and you should use data to derive insights that will inform your content strategy and how you produce content.
“People can simply search Skills Up on TikTok to be able to access the webinar,” says Sedibe.
He has a BCom degree in information management, was the chairperson of The Music Society and went on to win chairperson of the year for social structures in 2011.
