Abstract: „Globalisation, new technologies and demographic developments constitute an enormous challenge; one of the answers to this problem is the access to lifelong learning”[1] (Jan Figel – Commissioner for Education, Training, Culture and Multilingualism). This paper is intended to be a plea in favour of faculty using and engaging social networks in the act of teaching and learning. This of course will imply a permanent effort of self-teaching for the teachers themselves. Similarly to the notorious brands that are already making use of the social media in an intense and prolific way, academic institutions ought as well to articulate a coherent and viable strategy, based on the new online communication channels, if they want to obtain and maintain their credibility and reputation for the public.
