training the trainer: preparing LIS
professionals to train their users
Training has become an integral part of the
job for many library and information professionals, as more information becomes
available and end-users access more information from their desktops. The
role of the LIS team has expanded into facilitation, as they need to pass on
their skills and knowledge to colleagues. This two day course provides
the background necessary for you to prepare and deliver appropriate training
for your clients, whether the clients are members of your own team, trainee
solicitors, corporate financiers, health workers or managing directors.
Practical exercises will help you develop your confidence. The two
days are split so that delegates have the opportunity to prepare for the second
day.
Strictly limited to 8 delegates.

internet
Search Engines
NEW
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

tools and techniques that may be used to ensure that such inventions and events
