[Lib-helig-l] Announcement: Participants: 2nd Library Leadership Train-the-Trainer Programme

Second Carnegie Library Leadership Train-the-Trainer Programme

As part of the Leadership grant awarded to the University of Pretoria Library Services (UPLS) by the Carnegie Corporation of New York (CCNY), the Centre for African Library Leadership (CALL) will be hosting another residential Train-the-Trainer programme in Pretoria.

Following four successful Library Leadership Academies hosted in July 2009, March and November 2010, and March 2011, the second of three one-week Train-the-Trainer Programmes will be held at The Villas Conference Centre in Pretoria from 3-8 July 2011.

The intention is to build a team of library trainers who could confidently act as trainers and mentors in the professional arena.  The objectives of the Programme include:

- the creation of an awareness of what effective training and facilitation involves

- an understanding of how to use 'situational appropriate' training and facilitation techniques

- the development of key training and facilitation skills

- and the sharing of proven Library and Information Services (LIS) related facilitation and training methods.
