Should you pay for social media training??

Ok in my research I have come across quite a few sites that will offer you training in Social Media, and some claim that they can show you ways to get these jobs. Well in my experience I would think that most people who are wanting to get into this field already have experience in social media. I personally would not waste my money on such an investment. Social Media is a new and upcoming field where most of the time the person that is needing it, really doesn't have a set standard of skills other than that the employee has ran some sort of social media site. There are some companies that will ask that you have a bachelor's degree in marketing, bit in my research, I have seen that they put this in the ad to kind of weed out people. In the coming week I will posting some companies that I know are looking for social media manager for you, and hopefully some good sites that you can gleam some tips from.
