How to Train Staff Effectively - Webinar (04/25/2023)

You’ve finally done it! You’ve found the perfect fit for a vacant position. Or maybe you’ve realized that your staff needs some refresher training to absorb all of the changes that have happened in your library.

So what’s your plan? Are you sure you’ve got everything covered? Have you established criteria for success? How deep does your plan go?

Something we don’t always think about is the fundamental differences that exist among human beings. Yes, we talk about serving everyone in the way they need to be served, but are we training our staff members in the way they need to be trained? Are we using all of the resources at our disposal?

Come to this 90-minute webinar to get answers to these important questions and likely a host of others as well!
