Speaker Ian Thomson Date 5 September Course fee £295.00 + VAT (£346.63) http://www.tfpl.com/skills_development/courses/cd.cfm?linkid=TR881 Legal risks and information management Managing legal risk is an increasingly important aspect of modern information work. This one day course will help avoid the danger of expensive litigation and damage to reputation arising from the misuse of information content and associated technologies. The programme draws together the different areas of law relevant to this subject and examines them in the context of those situations and activities that commonly create legal risk. The emphasis is very much on practical information management with legal principles and rules being illustrated though the use of examples and cases. The intention is to enable information professionals to assess potential hazards and to introduce preventative policies and procedures. Speaker Guy Johnson Date 14 September Course fee £295.00 + VAT (£346.63) http://www.tfpl.com/skills_development/courses/cd.cfm?linkid=TR891 <http://www.tfpl.com/skills_development/courses/cd.cfm?linkid=TR891> Return on investment Added value and Business Case for libraries and information services. Demonstrating and communicating the value and impact for your organisations This one-day course for knowledge and information managers deals in pragmatic and clear ways the issues of organisational benefits around information expressed in Business Cases, Intangible Value, Return on Investment and the activities and responsibilities connected with these topics. Now more than ever it is vital for information services to show in a convincing and reliable way the clear and measured benefits of its efforts in the core processes and knowledge assets of the organisation. Investments in information technology like intranets, portals and search technology etc. and expectations from knowledge management and intellectual capital make the need for clear understanding of results even more important. You will learn how to do the research within your organisation, how to present your projected results to a board of directors and how to put a plan of action together. At the end of the course participants will take away a first draft of a plan of action for their own organisation. Speakers Boyd Hendriks, Ian Wooler Date 8 September Course fee £295.00 + VAT (£346.63) http://www.tfpl.com/skills_development/courses/cd.cfm?linkid=TR902 Internet search engines This is a companion course to 'Advanced Tools for the Internet Searcher' and it focuses exclusively on Internet Search Engines. Rather than having a smaller number of search engines on the Internet there are more and more of them available, all with their own particular strengths and weaknesses. In order to get the most out of the Internet it is becoming increasingly necessary to have a good in-depth understanding of how these work and which one(s) to use in any given circumstance. Not only will participants be able to spend time looking in detail at them, the course will also keep them up to date on what is happening in the field so they can make an informed decision on the best ways to obtain the information they require using search engines. Speaker Phil Bradley Date 15 September Course fee £295.00 + VAT (£346.63) http://www.tfpl.com/skills_development/courses/cd.cfm?linkid=tr812 Introduction to investment management Investment management is an increasingly important part of all our lives and this is a new course that perhaps every working person in the country ought to attend at some point in their early career !!! All the indications are that the more and the earlier we all understand about the part of our finances designated for our savings and ultimately retirement, the easier that phase of our lives will be. But, who gives us the basic training and understanding of these concepts? Here's that start; a new basic level one day course presenting a clear and understandable introduction to investment management.
