Two great UKeiG courses this September

Two courses that must not be missed are 'How to stay ahead of the game with Web 2.0' and 'Getting better at everything you do: optimizing the way you work'. The course details are:

How to stay ahead of the game with Web 2.0 - The Learning Centre, University of Birmingham, Tuesday, 7th September 2010, 09.30 - 16.30, with Karen Blakeman

The term Web 2.0 covers a multitude of sins - and many virtues! The terminology and jargon sometimes inhibits the take up of tools that can significantly improve the effectiveness of your services and the way you work. These tools enable you to share presentations to promote your own
and your department's skills and expertise; use RSS to keep you and your users up to date or to publish/republish information; create brief "how to" videos and tours of your library; tap into social and professional networks for research.

and

Getting better at everything you do: optimizing the way you work, CILIP, 7 Ridgmount Street, London, Wednesday, 22nd September 2010, 9.30-16.30, with Elisabeth Goodman

This interactive one-day training event combines key approaches from process improvement and knowledge management to equip Information Professionals with valuable tools for continuous improvement of their work. It will enable them to critically review the products and services that they provide to their customers (internal or external), how they go about their work, and how they can work more effectively and efficiently on a continuous basis.
