In 2011, CBS recognized the increased popularity of social media sites, and began utilizing Facebook, Twitter, WordPress and LinkedIn to connect with our member community and keep them informed on industry news, tips and the full array of CBS offerings. CBS social media followers receive health and safety information, find out which conferences CBS will be attending, where our experts will be speaking, when to catch our next webinar and much more.
